Paul - as RK said - and I do it ALL the Time - actually - right now I have 2 instances open. For the Hell of it - try this. Go to the Windows Start menu - find VFP - right click on it and Run as Admin - and see if THAT allows for another VFP session to run! The only reason I know about the Admin option is because Projects I have to compile - that have VCX's in them - they REQUIRE me to run VFP in Admin mode... -K- On 5/12/2017 3:33 PM, Darren wrote: > One limitation is you can't modify the same project in different instances > of VFP dev environment simultaneously.
