Gartner probably one of the most 'listened to' but 'highly inaccurate' companies that exist. So yes, I too would be irritated if they suggested (wasting my) time with them. :) -Charlie On Fri, Nov 22, 2019 at 9:27 AM MB Software Solutions, LLC < mbsoftwaresoluti...@mbsoftwaresolutions.com>

Actually, I have a virtual machine I could do that on, I was just thinking it would be easier to do side-by-side comparisons. One thing is certain, doing the first install on a virtual machine is definitely probably the way to start as the instructions are a bit vague. :) Paul H. Tarver

There definitely seems to be a limit of 32 as you say. Summing into an array as per below works for > 32 fields but I don't know if that would help. #DEFINE _fields 35 #DEFINE _rows 100 Clear =RAND(-1) CREATE CURSOR crsTest (id i) cCalcCmd = [CALCULATE ] cCalcCmd2 = [ SUM ] cCalcCmd3 = "" cTemp

Hi Alan Yes it only seems to be when summing to variables. Changing it to an array would necessitate further changes elsewhere. I have changed the code to allow a maximum of 32 and if it exceeds 32 I construct another second command to deal with the rest of the fields/variables. Paul

/Side by Side/ The important thing to remember is that VFPA *is* VFP9. It's not a different product at all. So everything is going to work pretty much the exact same except those places where he explicitly inserted code fixes. 99.9% is the same code. Eric On Fri, Nov 22, 2019 at 12:43 PM MB

I thought we were pretty much told there would be no new operating systems past Windows 10, so if your VFP app ran on Windows 10 now, then it was going to run forever.  On 11/22/2019 11:13 AM, Tracy Pearson wrote: This is good news. From what I gathered from the article the 32 bit apps
