ID: Q105507

2.50    | 2.50

WINDOWS | MS-DOS kbprg kbfixlist kbbuglist The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, version 2.5
  • Microsoft FoxPro for MS-DOS, version 2.5

SYMPTOMS

The FoxPro for Windows Transport program is not called if the Setup code for a screen is modified using the FoxPro for MS-DOS Screen Builder's Open All Snippets option.

Conversely, the FoxPro for MS-DOS Transport program is not called if the Setup code for a screen is modified using the FoxPro for Windows Screen Builder's Open All Snippets option.

RESOLUTION

To correct this problem, you should upgrade both products (FoxPro for Windows and FoxPro for MS-DOS) to version 2.5a.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in FoxPro 2.5 for MS-DOS and FoxPro 2.5 for Windows. This problem was corrected in FoxPro 2.5a for MS-DOS and FoxPro 2.5a for Windows.
