SP2, yes, hotfixes, no, apparently. I see the KB articles for the issues resolved by the hotfixes and none of them are applicable in my current app, fortunately. The KB points to an MSDN location that reports "the Archive has been retired." which is, after all, the point of an archive. Is there a place where the VFP community has these stored? I don't need them, but wonder. On Wed, May 27, 2015 at 1:19 PM, Richard Kaye <[email protected]> wrote: > You're not on SP2, Ted?
