Tell them to try window live mail. that's a huge dog that spends most its

life trying to update flags. Outlook was bad enough but that takes the cake.

I've not noticed VFP problems like that though. But I have noticed that all

that crap about 7 being faster to load and run is twoddle. Closing down is

so slow.

One thing, I think the behaviour you see is only when someone gets clicky.

Maybe they should get a coffee.

Subject: VFP + Windows 7

Many applications (not just VFP) when run on Windows 7 trigger display

of the "Not responding" status message on the application's title bar if

the application gets busy for an extended period. And, depending on what

you click on at that point, the "offending" window may become "shaded"

sort of a milky white...I guess it's Windows 7's attempt at showing that

the program is in distress or something.
