filePro and Windows VISTA

[Lauren]

Is filePro compatible with Windows VISTA?

filePro versions 5.0 and 5.6 will run on Window's Vista operating system.
 
When installing on Vista, do not install the programs (/fp directory) nor data (/filepro directory) in the root directory.
We suggest that you specify a parent directory for filePro's reserved directories e.g. c:\appl when doing the install and install the programs in c:\appl\fp with data in c:\appl\filepro.
 
If you have upgraded your system from an earlier version of Windows to Vista, and filePro is currently installed in the root of your system, you will need to move the /fp and /filepro directories to a parent directory as previously described and modify your shortcuts/batch files to specify the new path.

I experienced difficulty in calling the report.rtf into Atlantis. I found that filepro 5.0 will work perfectly if you step down TWO directories to install the program, i.e. create a c:\appl as you already noted, but go one more. I called mine \fptech. Thus, the program should be installed to c:\appl\fptech........  It worked perfectly in every way when isolated two directories down.
