An even better approach is to create a minimal Setup Wizard install to drop in the runtime VFP components, and then fire that as a part of your InstallShield script. There are several advantages to this; first, if file dependencies change or a new runtime distribution becomes available, it's simply a matter of replacing the directory from the Setup Wizard install with the newone - in fact, I was able to port some of my projects from VFP 5 to VFP 6 by simply recompiling the app, and substituting the VFP 6 Setup Wizard runtime distribution for the VFP 5 runtime distribution.

ANother advantage is that you get far less flack from M$ if you have to call for tech support related to the install - if you've put the runtime out using Setup WIzard, there's no question that you've followed Microsoft's guidelines for installation.
