Hi Steven,

Whoever put VFP runtime files into the Windows system directory created this problem. You cannot blame VFP for that because VFP7 and later doesn't copy runtime files there anymore. They're installed into 'Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VFP' directory. VFP8SP1 replaced runtime files where VFP8 original install put them.
