Visual FoxPro requires win32s v2.0 support (for NT or Win95).  OS/2 only 
supports to v1.15.  Your user will not be able to run Visual FoxPro under 
Win-OS/2 for the forseeable future.  Have her call Microsoft and complain 
to Bill Gates that he is not keeping his promise about Microsoft making 
products that run under OS/2 when "OS/2 sells 2 million copies."
