Another couple things I have run into running foxpro dos on newer xp
and vista machines:
Sometimes I've had to create a batch file that exlicitly calls the
extened memory version of foxpro or the runtime ie "foxr +x" "fox +x"

I was under the impression that MS-DOS executables would not run in
either 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7 (they definitely won't run in *any*
64-Bit Windows as it has no 16-bit support at all). So TameDOS won't

Hey Alan,
Thanks for your feedback. And, I think you hit on the reason that worked
