My take. I have my main prog which uses OCX's running on 8. Better than 7 in my opinion. Ok, since XP, M$ has stopped the use of program files to put things in other than the basics (not updatable stuff). Matter of opinion as to if you should or not anyway as all they have done is move it to ProgramData. And you can get over it by altering permissions anyway. Only problem I had is using csMail.dll which needs a help and admin mode to register. Otherwise I have no problems in 8. Windows 8.1 has a better start menu right click though so upgrade to 8.1 I also program on 8.1 (and 7) and have no problems other than the usual debug falling over. Al
-----Original Message----- I have a client that just got a Windows 8 box and I need to install my application in that new OS 1. Any recommendations on how and where to install the VFP 9 SP2 ? 2. Any caveats with running the compiled exe? 3. Any suggestions? I know this has been discussed before, but I just need a quick summary of all the discussions, please. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/002c01cf608c$931e7b10$b95b7130$@com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
