I changed the last few lines of CONFIG.NT as follows: The last two lines are in case you need any DOS variables in your FoxPro code.Ħ. Under C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 you need to edit AUTOEXEC.NT and CONFIG.NT. I've written lots more in there but it's probably not necessary to most people.ĥ. The BATch file needs only to call up FoxPro, for example: Select 'Window' and check all the other buttons.ĭ. Set everything to 'Auto' and check the 'Uses HMA' button.Ĭ. Select to run under Normal Window and check 'Close on exit'.ī. Type in that BAT directory name (\BAT) as 'Working' directory. Under the 'Program' tab, enter the name of the DOS BATch file establishing the FoxPro startup parameters (see \BAT\Fox95.bat, below). To ensure you get the right number of buffers and files operational for FoxPro v2 under Vista, enter the following values in the PIF shortcut dialogue:Ī. If you called up FoxPro on the XP machine using a PIF shortcut to a DOS routine, it'll work just as well in Vista (I have Vista Business and don't know why!).ģ. Drive letter, path and filenames should be identical to what was on the XP machine.Ģ.
Copy all the FoxPro software, code, data - everything - to exactly the same place on the Vista computer. Getting FoxPro v2 to run with FILES=102 is much easier than making a home LAN work under Vista.
