I am trying to convert tables from a vfp database and I get a message stating dep has closed the program.

this is in the event viewer:

Faulting application DatabaseDTK.exe, version 1.6.6.0, time stamp 0x48ceb31d, faulting module unknown, version 0.0.0.0, time stamp 0x00000000, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x0bdb0f06, process id 0x9f0, application start time 0x01c99e53eed9a80c.

 

Help.

FoxPro has known issues with DEP.  In fact, within our medical software, we still have a few old legacy VFP tables that we talk to (but not for much longer) so we must ensure that DEP is disabled on our install.  However, we do not force this on StrataFrame as it is generally not an issue.  DEP is really a pain and you learn to hate it when dealing with VFP OLEDB, but you can disable it easily.  If you are running Vista, you disable it like this:

bcdedit.exe /set {current} nx AlwaysOff

Just run the above command to disable DEP.  I am not sure if this will resolve your issue, but it is a good place to start.  Also, you will have to reboot after to set this.
