Markus;

I had problems with VFP5 and the setup wizard, my problem there was no reference to two ole type files in the setup.ini file.

Having moved to VFP6, guess what the setup wizard doesn't work again. Your suggestion of inserting the space in the four digit numbers did the trick.

Thanks for your posting

John

Your error message says there is a problem with object 12, which means that the line with the number 12 (not necessarry the 12th line!) has a problem. Typically, in this line you will find the line number, a command (or keyword) and a number of two-digit number. If some of these numbers have 4 digits, you found your problem. In this case simply add a space bteween digit 2 and 3 of these number. Here is an example:
