Vince,

It's illegal to share one VFP copy between multiple users. Each user should have his own licensed copy of VFP installed locally.

Any member of my group that also runs XP has no problem running from the aforementioned shortcut. However, those in my group that are running W2000 workstation have an unresolved target in the shortcut. This is the path to c:\program files\microsoft visual foxpro 8\vfp8.exe. It invariably translates to c:\progra~1\micros~1\vfp8.exe and therefore fails. However, if I create the shortcut from the W2000 station, all users, WinXP and W2000 can successfully double click the shortcut and run it.
