Hi,
Have a look at http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?Wiki~VFP9RuntimeFiles
Some of the files need to be in the app directory i.e. msvcr71.dll & the report builder etc.

What you are trying to do may give a smaller inno setup exe, but it would lead to
a lot of possible errors.

You need to control the full install not just part of it.

Also why not compile the app and distribute that, more secure.
