Hi Searson,
VFP8 installs to \Program Files\Microsoft Visual FoxPro 8\. You may find a
Config.fpw there. If there isn't one you can create one in Notepad with the
COMMAND = ... as shown above. If you have more than one command to execute
you can put them in a "startup" program. My Config.fpw has COMMAND = DO
CindyStartup.prg and CindyStartup has other commands. You can also indicate
a startup program in Tools > Options > File Locations > Startup Program. If
you indicate a startup program you won't need the Conifg file (unless there
are other settings you want to use.)
