Win95 machines will need to have DCOM installed before running a VFP application; Win98 and NT 4.0 systems should already have DCOM support installed.

I'd suggest creating your install (at least the VFP 6 Runtime portion) with the Setup Wizard rather than attempting to copy files, since the VFP runtime files also have dependencies on other common libraries (like the various MSVCRT and MFC .DLLs) which need to be brought up to date properly. The Setup Wizard should handle this for you. Guessing at file dependencies and versions is a good way to mess up an install, and in some cases, a working system. If you do roll your own and don't use a third-party product like InstallShield to manage the installation of system components, you'll need some of the facilities of the Win32 Setup API to help in copying and registering .DLLs that may already be resident in memory.

Unfortunately, Setup Wizard doesn't address the DCOM install, which can force a reboot during the install process; you can download the DCOM installs from Microsfot's Web page. If you need to encapsulte the entire install into a single process, you'll need a seaprate install scripter such as InstallShield or the Windows Scripting Host. It's simpler to do the DCOM install before attempting to run the VFP Runtime install created by the Setup Wizard.
