wine users - Oct 2003 - Fox Pro 2.6 for Windows & WINE

Hello.

I just installed Wine 20031016 on Linux Red Hat 9 and I think they are
wonderful.

But... I can't run Fox Pro for Windows 2.6

It's true I'm a begginer, I need to read much more documentation, but mi
question is:

FPW 2.6 works properly under WINE?


Thanks

Claudio

Not in quite a while..  It worked a few years ago, but FPW26 is a 16-bit
app, and support for 16bit isn't really there.

If you have Windows screens you need to use, try using VFP3/5 -
otherwise if you have screens that also work in FPD, you can use the
Solaris runtime to run FPD apps 'natively' on Linux:
