SUMMARY
You can use the command-line options described below with FoxPro versions 2.0, 2.5, and 2.5a for MS-DOS.

MORE INFORMATION
Option   Purpose -E       Prevents use of expanded memory.

-K       Prevents attempts to use F11 and F12 keys. This may be         necessary for machines with older ROM BIOS chips.

-T       Suppresses the FoxPro sign-on screen.

-C       Specifies the name and location of the CONFIG.FP file.

+L       Loads the LAN (multiuser) version, where permitted by the loader.

-L       Does not load the LAN version.

+R       Forces loading of the run-time version.

+X       Forces loading of the Extended (32-bit) version.

-X       Does not load the Extended version, even if memory is available.

-M    Runs the Extended version only if  kilobytes of memory are available (the default check is for 2000K).

-Y       Exits immediately after having set the MS-DOS error level to 1 if          the Extended version can be run (for use within batch files, and          is followed by an explicit load of a particular version).
