How about doing a GOOGLE search on "Foxpro and Vista" and see what comes up

There's no truth to that... just for the heck of it I tried some old 16 bit
apps
and they worked fine
(of course that does not mean all old apps will work)

It is only 64 bit Vista that has no support for 16 bit. A 32 bit
application with a 16 bit installer will also not work on x64 Vista.

The 16-bit MS-DOS subsystem will not support full screen mode..
I have an old game that won't play because of that.

The OP never asked about full screen
he just wanted to know if it would work

Hi!
I don't have personal experience with FPD and Vista but I found the
following in Julie Lehrman's blog:
http://www.thedatafarm.com/blog/2006/01/13/FoxPro25DOSOnVistaAndFPW26Too.aspx
FoxPro 2.5 DOS on Vista (and FPW26, too)
I just had to see! And it works. I can run my old FoxPro 2.5 DOS and FoxPro
2.6 Windows applications on Vista CTP 5270. I only started up the apps and
did a few functions. No thorough testing by any means. But I thought that
was pretty cool.
