Tracy,
Turns out it was the VFP data in my folder:
C:\Users\Dave Crozier\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Visual FoxPro 9
That was causing the problem.
Simply deleting it removed the error so I needn't have uninstalled and
installed VFP at all.
As for Ted's suggestion which I tried first, I have no entries in the registry
corresponding to the ones he found.
Anyway, all fixed and I can go on Easter break with a working PC to return to
(note that I'm NOT taking it with me!!)

Dave,
Do you have a "Microsoft VisualFoxpro" folder under this location?
%LocalAppData%\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\
Paste that in the address bar of the File Explorer.
You might find a corrupt foxuser.dbf/fpt in there which is causing the problem.
HTH,
Tracy

I thought RESOURCE=ON equals foxuser table, not the various reg keys that store
options. Dump it out to a file using F2B per Fernando's suggestion if you want
to save any of that data and tehn try packing it or just starting with a clean
one.

Richard,
The plot thickens now in that if I set Resource=ON then the same problem
arises, with the old pre-loaded projects so it must be the resources that are
screwing things up. I can't for the life of me find where these resources are
held though, I have cleaned the registry of all VFP and Foxpro entries as well
as uninstalling and re-installing VFP....
Anyhow, once again thanks for the heads up and now I can hunt for the elusive
resources!!
Postscript: I have just read a thread off tek-tips where both Rick Schummer had
exactly the same problem but there doesn't seem to be a resolution as to how to
find or clear them!
