Visual FoxPro 9.0 Tips

Running VFP9

The software must be installed first on a true windows OS because the installer does not work. Then creates a win98 bottle and uses the vfp9 in this bottle. Alternatively, it is possible to create a winxp bottle and only this application is indicated to run in windows 98 compatibility mode. Just after launch, an error appears due to something wrong with ole (Unknown COM Status code), just press cancel and vfp9 is working fine. Based on similar error observed for other software, it seems related to an error on activeX. The error does not show when using CrossOver Games. The table window must stay "free", that is it does not occupied all the space in the background window or the menus will not work.
The error does not appear in CrossOver 8 and everything runs fine here.
