Visual FoxPro 9 compatibility with Windows Vista

Question

What compatibility issues have you found when developing with Visual FoxPro 9 on Windows Vista?

Answer 1

My company has no current plans to move to vista, so we haven't tested compatability issues yet. Doug Hennig has an excellent article on the subject however:

These links describe some issues as well:

Answer 2

Our company found some issues with the Vista Windows color and appearance settings. Evidently FoxPro does not handle the new Vista graphics very well. I believe we fixed these issues by having the users switch back to the Windows "Classic" appearance settings.
