I was able to embed ALL my app dependencies into a single free-standing exe file. From ocx-es to gdi, vfp runtimes and even msvcr71.dll. Great stuff. It does certainly more than the already capable molebox pro that I used up to now. Absolutely fantastic concept if VFP deployment is an issue for you.

Hi Francois
I downloaded the Pro version and have not had any scuccess creating a Modebox EXE to run.
My test project EXE is very simple. A main.prg
DO FORM test
READ EVENTS
and a form called TEST.scx that has in the destroy - CLEAR EVENTS.
MoleboxPro compiles my EXE but when I try to run it, It always brings up the "Open" dialog, asking for a FXP file.
Can you please enlighten on what files you included to get your exe to work?
Also it ignores my config.fpw settings as well.
By the way I have in the past created a THINSTALL VFP9 version (VFP9 complete compiled to 1 80MB EXE file) and that was very easy to use. Also it loaded very fast as well. I used to use it of my USB drive. Thinstall is now owned by VMWare and very expensive so Molebox would be a much cheaper alternative.
Thanks
Bernard
