>Sessions appear to be conflilcting. The program hangs periodically and sometimes workstations can't log in--the application icon is disabled. The client reports that sessions haven't terminated properly. An VFP5 version of this app runs fine on the server. This version runs fine on the network. Problems appeared immediately after the installation on Citrix.

If the Setup.exe is not run in the individual profile, the support file don't exist for the user. This is quite contrary to expectation. I would have expected the FP file to either live in Program files, or be loaded and registered in the system path."
