We have to try several times before the application will start. We also get a Divide-by-Zero/Overflow error. We found foxpfix.exe, and it's enabled. FoxPro for Windows doesn't perform like a true Windows application because it doesn't use the basic Windows API. It acts more like a 16-bit DOS application. You can use Citrix's foxpfix.exe utility to fix some of the graphics problems, but you still need to tame foxr.exe using application tuning. Foxpfix.exe is enabled by default, but I find that it's often better to disable it. Here are some tips for tuning the application. You'll need to use Performance Monitor to adjust these hexadecimal numbers according to your needs, but the settings are usually close for most applications. Using regedt32.exe, create the subkey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows NT/CurrentVersion/Terminal Server/Compatibility/Applications/foxr With a "d word," create the values Flags = 0 x C FirstCountMsqQPeeksSleepBadApp = 1F MsgQBadAppSleepTimeInMillisec = 0 x 1 Nthcountmsgqpeeksleepbadapp = F One mistake I've seen is that people tune the compiled application name (e.g., account.exe) instead of foxr.exe. Tuning account.exe does nothing— foxr.exe is the problem application. To tune the memory, create a foxpro.pif or shortcut file that calls a unique config.nt file. You can copy the system config.nt to the application directory and add mem=60 1024,8192. The addition sets FoxPro to use up to 60 percent of the available memory— not less than 1024K and not more than 8192K. Here are few tips for your FoxPro programmers: Keep screens as simple as possible; limit colors and color changes. Limit your screen changes to 25 percent of the total screen. Don't overrun the area you're working in. If you're working

When it became available, I upgraded to Windows 98. On startup, FoxPro always gave an error message, but after pressing Enter it recovered and worked correctly. I have now a different computer running XP. I installed FoxPro 2.6 from the original floppies, but on Startup it gives the error message "Divide by zero or overflow error" which does not respond to the keys. This must be a known problem with a known solution, but what is it?
