It's not the actual VFP application, but the driver that was broken 
before.  I butted my head against it for a couple of days sometime last 
year -- say September? -- before giving up and just installing Windows.  :(

I'll give it a shot, but won't be able to until later this evening.

I guess I should have explained in more detail...

I'm having troubles getting Platypus to work.  The VFP driver it uses was 
causing problems a long time ago (September-ish), but now it just 'runs out 
of memory' when trying to contact the SQL server.  Last night, it was dying 
because it couldn't find SHELL32.DLL, but I copied that in place and it's 
no longer complaining about it, but still dying.  I'm a bit at a loss.

If I use win98 emulation (the above is with win2k emulation), I don't 
actually get any display windows, and wine complains of an unhandled 
exception, and starts debugging.
