Well I don't believe the below statement from MS if the issues I am having with older MS products and Vista are to go by...
http://tinyurl.com/2uepmn Basically Outlook XP is not broken in a way that it doesn't run anymore, but it is broken in a way that is to annoy the user something rotten. It isn't going to get fixed because the product is out of main stream support. Next OS comes, and VFP has some really bad issues. It still runs but there are many problems. MS then says, "That is a known compatibility issue between VFP and Windows SonOfVista that won't be fixed as VFP is out of mainstream support." Cheers MS!

Subject: RE: Another life after VFP thread? <QUOTE MS> Also including reply to your earlier... Vista support ends 2017. There will be other operating system versions and patches. Plans and details of those OSes is not known. I want to emphasize again, that there is no 'switch' that says this app will not work anymore. There are DOS apps that still work 15 years after DOS stopped being supported. 10 years ago we shipped VFP5. Your question is, will VFP9 work on an OS that will be released 10 years into the future. That is really an impossible question to answer. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This email was sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unless otherwise agreed expressly in writing by Marine Software Limited, this communication and attachments are to be treated as confidential and the information in it may not be used or disclosed except for the purpose for which it was sent.
