This error is actually coming from Visual Foxpro. The Visual Foxpro 7 libraries get installed with Version 10 of R&R. I would try a re-install to this machine or alternatively you can disable the VFP based utilities by adding the lines:____LIBRARIAN=OFF__DICTIONARY=0____to the Defaults section of your c:windowsR?W.INI file.____Kathleen__R&R Support

the solution suggested to turn off the visual foxpro programs is a good one - __i have had the same error message and it went away after i made the registry changes to RRW.INI____to fix the problem you have to analyze the path of your workstation - __the visual foxpro programs are finding an earlier version of the foxpro runtime libraries in the search path before finding the correct version 7 files.(look for files starting with vfp7...)____nick__
