>OK, so I create a CD with vfp9.dll , vfp9enu.dll , msvcr71.dll and test.exe. Test.exe is a vfp 9 exe that simple shows a message box on the screen. If I attempt to run this from the CD on a machine with no runtimes and no config.fpw the program bombs out with the 'cannot create resources' error.

If you put VFP9.exe on the CD and add config.fpw with RESOURCE=OFF and some directory on the C drive for temp files, would it work?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
