>>>One of the VFP programmers in my office was trying to deploy her first VFP 3.0 application on one of the PC's that I support. Once the SETUP is ran, the icon for her application yields a dialog with the title "Microsoft FoxPro" and the error "Invalid EXE" in both Win 3.x and Windows 95. After reruning Setup Wizard to make a Netsetup and including ODBC drivers (she didn't think she needed them), I was able to get the application to run under Windows 95, but not under Win 3.1.

>>>Upgrading the Win32s on the Windows 3.x machine to the latest and greatest didn't help either.

Or maybe the folder from where you created the setup...

Did you know that there are innocent people dying in East Timor?
It helps if you do...

I suppose you don't need glasses if you're able to read this line
