Here the polling stations are open from early morning until 10pm (always on a Thursday). Normally I go in the evening after work maybe peak hours are be different. Pretty scary seeing the queues in the USA. I know they vote on everything (local dog catcher - or is that a myth?). As you pointed

I don't see how the version has any relevance as to whether your VFP stuff will run. I work all day on 1 64 bit W7 system with no problems; Aero or otherwise. The only question would be if you need to simulate a domain style environment for some reason. -- rk -Original Message- From:

The more I read about the American voting system the worse it gets. It would barely register as a D- on a scale of democratic processes. A cynical view would be that the voting system is there to be manipulated and to brazenly cheat the voting public of their right to choose. It explains GWB so
