Hi Fernan,

that are good news! If you are running visual fox pro I have a question:
I'm trying to run a visual fox pro application which only installs the visual 
fox pro runtimes. Installation works with wine but when I start the 
application I get an error message telling me that:
The VFP6R.DLL file is invalid or damaged.

I'm quite sure that it is the right file and not damaged because I already 
tried to copy it from a working win-install. Did you have similar problems?
Can you tell me which vfp dlls you copied and used native?

Regards,

Stefan
