Darren - Exactly.

Paul - as RK said - and I do it ALL the Time - actually - right now I have 2 instances open.

For the Hell of it - try this.

Go to the Windows Start menu - find VFP - right click on it and Run as Admin - and see if THAT allows for another VFP session to run! The only reason I know about the Admin option is because Projects I have to compile - that have VCX's in them - they REQUIRE me to run VFP in Admin mode...

Sure. I do it all the time. It should just work unless you have your
environment setup with some dependencies on exclusive access.

Subject: Running Multiple Instances of VFP 9

Does anyone know if there is a way to run multiple instances of the VFP
development environment on the same computer. I run into this need from time
to time, but I've not taken a lot of time to research it.

I know I can run multiple instances of a compiled VFP program, but every
time I try to open multiple VFP projects, it simply brings the existing dev
window forward and opens each project within the same development
environment.

Short of running virtual machines, is this even possible?
