VFP 9 SP2 editor has jerky movements
I recently installed vfp 9.0 SP2 on a Windows 7 64 bit laptop. The command and project manager windows were moving slowly and jerkily.
I read the articles on this issue and checked the "Disable Desktop Composition" option in the VHFP properties and that fixed it.
The problem I still have is scrolling in the VFP editor using the mouse wheel. The cursor movement keys and vertical scroll bars work fine. I tried downloading the latest intellipoint software etc. to no avail.
So far, I have not encountered this in any other application.
Thank You,
Michael

Ma fault, I thought there is such an option, but it's merely the location of the installation which already automatically makes it run in 32 bit on the WOW64 subsystem...http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/how-windows7-vista64-support-32bit-applications.htm

32 bit is not one of the compatibility options in the VFP properties. I tried Windows XP SP3 and it made no difference.
I am checking other apps and so far it is also sluggish in Adobe Reader when using it on a PDF file.
I will look for more and also research mouse issues in general.
I am closing this question, but please let me know if there is a way to set VFP to 32 bir compatibility mode.
