>>First, I should warn you that FPW is even more quirky under NT than under '95. It may be time to upgrade to VFP.

>>There are a couple of articles in the MS knowledge base about problems with FPW under NT. You can find them at:

>>>My department is in the process of "upgrading" from Windows 95 to Windows NT. We develop in FoxPro 2.6a for Windows. After I reinstalled FPW26 on my new Windows NT machine, I tried to run it. It looked like NT tried to open it - the FPW splash screen came up with the FPW desktop behind it and then FoxPro immediately closed down.

You're right to try and get your boss to commit to the upgrade but fox 2.6 will run on NT. I'd look at some other issues if you still have to run it in that environment. Upgrade isn't the quick answer. -- Sarah
