Setup wizard is pretty stable and simple tool and I don't see why you don't want to use it. I'm a little bit acrimonous here, because I was couple times in situations when I had to fix problems arising from incomplete/non-standard installation process adopted by someone else before.

Ok. I ran the Setup Wizard. I'm still getting the error "File 'Timecard.exe' does not exist" with a title bar caption of Microsoft Visual FoxPro generated from within Timecard.exe Any Ideas? Also, these machines will have both 3.0 and 5.0 apps on them. Everytime the exe runs, a messagebox pops up asking if I want to convert the 3.0 resource file to 5.0 format. How do I stop this from happening and allow 3.0 and 5.0 apps run together in peace?
