Hi everyone,

I've been away from VFP for awhile on other projects, but am back working in the Fox again.

It seems to me that this should have been solved by now, but does anyone know of a simple way to determine all of the dependencies of a VFP project? I have Installshield Express (full version) and it helps somewhat by allowing the inclusion of merge modules, etc.

Hasn't someone (Microsoft?) come up with a way to determine the ActiveX controls and external libraries needed for a particular project?

It seems to me that you could read the Ole2 field of every VCX in the project, search all code for SET LIBRARY TO statements, etc and build a pretty good list of OCXs, FLLs and miscellaneous DLLs needed. You could then use Installshield to determine the deeper dependencies, like C runtimes, etc.

Am I missing something or is this still a major problem for everyone using ActiveX controls and external libraries?

Thanks!

Steve
