Windows 2000 Professional

[rgw]

Have an exe.based system which runs in our WIN95 network environment. New machines are WIN2000 professional so we are running a mixed system (perhaps for years). Will my exe. which was developed in 6.0 on 95 run on the 2000 machines?. When I run setup I'm being told that "Can't run 16-bit Windows programs".

many thanks

Sounds like it was developed in FoxPro2.6.

Dear mgagnon

no, it was developed fresh in 5.0 and then 6.0. We haven't had 2.6 round here in years.

many thanks

rgw,
This is probably related to

- "PRB: No Version Info if COM DLL/EXE Is Built Under Windows Me/98/95 (Q235119)". Consider rebuilding the application in NT / 2000 / XP.

Try putting a blank "FOXPRO.INI" in the application's directory.
