hi. appreciate your help. thanks for reply
no it is not giving any error message when i double click the exe in exporer.

i kept the 'terminal service manager' open while loading the exe. i saw there in the 'process list' that exe gets loaded for few seconds and then unload immediately automaticaly without any error message

its not giving error message so i am not sure if it is trying to find some missing file.

screen is not off in config.fpw.we use standard old yag's framework. there are couple of other small exes (kind of utilities to fix data or something). those are not loading also.

and the thing is everything was working fine by them till they installed this vfp6 application. i think they used vfp installshield to setup that application.


thanks for your help again.

David
