Hi Grady,

Thanks for replying. I use Inno Setup and have done already quite many installs. This is my first install with a VFP9 distribution. I'm used to install the runtime files in the same map where the main vfp-exe will come. The information on the foxwiki page suggests that this optional place is no longer available. My own test (just done some minutes ago) suggests that this is not the case. It suggests that it is still possible to place the runtime files into the application map and that registering is not required in that case.

I guess the foxwiki page for vfp9runtimefiles needs to be adjusted!

>Hi Peter - I think, if you are using install shield, that VFP9R might be automatically loaded into the setup for you. But, here is the path - C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VFP
