Richard I have already tried exactly that ...
This time for sure....

One other way to approach controlling foxuser is to create a configuration file (clean.fpw) that has RESOURCE=OFF in it. For example, I have one that looks like this: COMMAND=SYS(3050, 1, 512*1024*1024) RESOURCE=OFF BELL=OFF CATMAN=OFF MVCOUNT=2400 KEYCOMP = WINDOWS MULTILOCK=ON TALK = OFF EXCLUSIVE = OFF But to continue with your environment testing the RESOURCE line is all you should need. Then start VFP with the -c switch pointing at the clean.fpw. Use the full path to the config if it's not in the directory where you are invoking VFP. At that point VFP should not be picking up any saved info from foxuser.
