Hi Rodman,

I'd like to install and run this sample, but I'm concerned about your statement below regarding the installed location of VFP 8.

I *never* install apps in the C:\Program Files\... folders. EVER. And, I'm certain I'm not the only one. Does this mean those of us who don't do this can't run your sample app ???
