If you're getting shiny new Windws7 machines you're likely getting machines with new graphics cards with lots of RAM, which will let Win7 use Aero, well-documented to cause problems with older versions of Windows. Many of our clients were more than happy to turn Aero off rather than paying us to recompile stable apps into the latest runtimes. If you're getting more than 2 Gb of RAM, folks will likely opt for 64-bit OS, which means that 32-bit applications like VFP need matching 32-bit subsystems (like ODBC) to interface with. You'll find some pointers to doing this in the list's archive or by Googling. -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
