They are talking about the code and apps that they are providing with VFP. It is code that they have written and are granting you a license to distribute it with your app. They have the right to restrict that. That line does not say you can not distribute your own app to run on another platform. Here is where the vagueness from lawyers comes in. How distinct is that line between distributable code and the VFP runtime DLLs? Is a runtime DLL distributable code? If you look in the VFP home folder and open the REDIST.TXT file, here is what you will find among other things:

DISTRIBUTABLE CODE - Standard:
================================

foxpro.h
foxtools.fll
genhtml.prg
vfpxtab.prg

Here is the next vagueness, is every file, except maybe non-code files lige graphics files, in that REDIST.TXT file redistributable code? I would say that you can find a lawyer that could argue affectively from either side. The file name is after all REDISTributable files. If the file has code, I could see a lawyer defining that as a file with redistributable code. The opposition can argue only those listed explicitly under the DISTRIBUTABLE CODE heading meet that requirement.

Don't hold your breath for any lawyer to provide a black-and-white legal document. If you do, thankfully, you will pass out to prevent you from dying a horrible and painful death. :)
