If you run VFP APP or EXE inside other VFP application with DO command it shares enviroment of the calling application and uses the same runtime regardless in which version called application is built. IOW, your VFP8 app will use VFP6 runtime and it could blow up if it uses any features not present in VFP6. If you want your VFP8 application use VFP8 runtime you've to run it as external EXE using VFP RUN command, SHELLEXECUTE() api, WSH Run method, e.t.c.

>I have an application written using VFP6. Recently, I have write an addon to the app using VFP8. I issue DO ("myapp.exe") to call my addon app.
