Hi Ted,

> the SourceSafe provider appears in the options for VFP9 and not for VFP8.
Any idea why?

Yes, for older versions the length of each provider name must be shorter or
equal the preceding one. VFP doesn't reset the buffer length variable, so
that the space in the buffer seems to shrink with each call.

The easiest way to get around this is to change the name of every provider
in the registry starting with the longest one. Just add a character in the
first pass and then remove it in the second pass. This puts them in the
right order. Alternatively, you can reinstall all providers in the same
order.
