I got Koen's reply, but never saw Tracy's original message. Often when
this happens the original is in the Spam folder, but not this morning.
Just thought I'd flag this as Ed had said he was moving around some
domains and this might be a sign of trouble. Hope not.

Hi,
You did not mention which OS() and where the by you constructed myVFP.exe
resides.
By the way, any reason for not installing the hotfixes?

Ditto here!
I don't think it's a problem with ProFox - at least I'm guessing it's not.

Haven't touched anything yet. I hope to have time this afternoon to make the switch. When I do, I'll be sending out a note to let everyone know, and then probably several test messages to make sure things are working as expected.
