I hope not; at least one of our clients has the upgraded version. Come to think of it, so do I on my work computer. That could be a very bad thing. :)

You might want to take a look at a couple of documents at www.microsoft.com/vfoxpro that discuss moving a project from 3.0 to 5.0. There are a couple of places that could become big gotchas depending on how you developed your application. The one that seems to cause the most problem in that in 5.0 you cannot setfocus to another control from inside a Valid.
