I created an application is for viewing reports only.
It works fine until I loaded it onto a computer that has Windows Millennium. When I run the report it crashes out of FoxPro. Is there a fix for this ?
 
What do you mean "crashes out of FoxPro"? Did you create the reports using a specific printer; the printer would need to be installed on the new machine in order for the report to work.

Hope this helps

Hack the printer info from the report files.
Folow my thread faq184-581 to know how to hack.
Recompile for the runtime. This will be a permanent solution. Remeber to hack everytime you redo the report file, since VFP writes printer info everytime it is opened.

Alternative is make sure the same printers are installed in the client place as in the development environment (specificaly the default printer).

Hope this solves your problem.
