Which Visual FoxPro problems are you referring to?  Up until December I
believe there were some OLE issues, but the current issues I'm aware of
(I guess I'm the only one concentrating on Visual FoxPro in particular)
is the mouse button release issue.  The button release issue (AFIAK)
only appears in 'entry' boxes, and scrollbars.  Clicking buttons is ok. 
Selecting menus is ok.  Does your app allow for something like a "range
of dates" entry?  Can you click in one of those boxes, or a scrollbar
without an apparent 'freeze'?

If you can click in input areas, and use scrollbars, I'd like you to run
a test FoxPro 5 app from http://www.havokmon.com/stuff/wine/vfp5test.zip

I'm not capable of fixing the issue, but I have a good idea of what
works (GUI wise) and what doesn't relating to Visual FoxPro.

Thanks,
