I guess that was part of the question. The installation for Python 3.x sets
up paths and other stuff that I thought would be exclusive to one version or
the other. But I guess you are saying they coexist happily, correct? 

I know it was a rhetorical question but I use VFP 6, VFP 9 and on really
rare occasions I break out FoxLan! :)

How many versions of VFP do you work with? I have a couple of versions
installed, in order to support clients who are locked in for some reason or
another.

Learn, use and master 3, because that's the future. Fall back to 2 if you
run into that (rare) app that still requires it. It's okay to keep multiple
around, unlike proprietary vendors (like MS) that upgrade you to the latest.
