Sorry, I'm aware from .NET, so I couldn't success again. I copied vfprenu.dll and vfp9r.dll. I thought my .net .EXE file won't needed VFP .DLL files.

You talked assemblies, which files I need to copy there?

You're talking about ASP.NET forms, that's great. But which environment will our developing environment for developing ASP.NET forms. Web environment not such user friendly for an account application but it seem it will be good alternative for windows terminal server.

>The error reported has to do that you need the VFP Runtime in the same directory of your app. Just put the vfp.runtime.dll and other needed assemblies in the same directory of your compiled exe. By the way the Online Compiler is really old (May 2007), we want to update that but we need to remove the preprocessor support from the compiler because of security reasons, and that is somewhat tricky.

Recently we added support for 4 letter abbrevs, and it allowed us to recompile a FoxPro library containing several thousand lines without changes. In fact almost all errors you get when recompiling your code are usually related to Missing Commands or Functions not implemented yet.

Markus Winhard in his Session notes for DevCon Germany show that in translated automatically from German and here in the original German Text

>The compiler / runtime can do lots of powerful things like scanning, filtering, locating data, Visual FoxPro Forms, ASP.NET WebForms, ASP.NET Web Services, SQL PassThrough and more. Of course we need to polish the compiler / runtime, but to program in FoxPro and recompile to .NET is so great, that we are building all this in the the FoxPro language itself.
