VFP5 with VPME on WIndows10

Postby btiguy » Tue Dec 29, 2015 12:26 pm

I have two computers with Windows10. On one of them, the create exe bombs out, but not on the other computer. I have copied the one that works onto the computer that bombs out and it still bombs out. Is anyone else having a problem with this? The application is old (VFP50) with VPME 9.1.12. THe issue seems to be related to the menu. IF I exclude the menu from the project, the exe is created. I have tried with creating a new shell menu and added that menu to the project and then it bombs out.
TIA

I have tried VFP5/VPM5 and VFP9/VPM9 apps on Win10
I had trouble with the VFP5 apps -- but not the VFP9 apps which seemed to work fine.
In general, I don't care for Win10 (especially the Win7->Win10 upgrade) which seemed to be quite a bit slower in all aspects / than the same machine on Win7.
I have not tried a machine with a fresh install of Win10.

I generally never go the upgrade route. I just installed an SSD drive and it's great with VFP and VPME. Compiling is VERY FAST.

I think I had a path problem that was causing the failure and the one computer didn't like it. Thanx for your input.
