Hi, I just started getting the message attached whenever I tried to run an exe created with VFP 9.0. I tracked it down to the file msvcr71.dll that was in a folder that was probably created accidentally, and the file moved there accidentally. The errors started when this folder was deleted and...

I am using Mile Gagnon's post, listed below to preview a report in a top level form, which may have another form already open in it. It works fine, except I cannot seem to control the width of the "PrintPreview" object. Using the Sysmetric() function looks strange on a large monitor. Is it...

I have an app being used by many people and 2 or 3 isolated cases where printing a report generates a c00000094 error. I believe it is happening on different printers, but it is always the same report. Would deleting the foxuser files or PACKing the report file help? I am using VFP 9.0 SP2...
