I just had a raft of updates through from Microsoft for their Patch Tuesday and noticed that one of the security patches affects VFP. Anyone got any further details?
I didn't think that VFP used any of the standard controls, having them all encoded within VFP itself.

Worst of the bunch is an update for ActiveX controls that affects Visual Basic 6.0's runtime (MS08-070. The buffer overflow risk affects Visual Studio, Foxpro, Frontpage and MS Project, along with third party apps that make use of the affected component.
