>I have been updating my users from my VFP3 developed application to a new VFP6 version. I use the setup wizard to install the new executable with all the necessary support files. So far, out of 8 install attempts, 1 has gone well. All others have experience some.ocx or some.dll cannot register itself. This is after installing DCOM98. A couple run ok even after not 'successfully' completing setup, but several others experience 'lockups'. They can't even ctrl-alt-delete. Is this product for real? Is anyone else having success with this product? Mostly this is to vent while I look up each of the OCX files to determine what consequences each will have, but I can't help wondering -- Is this even supposed to work? Maybe they expect everyone to upgrade to Windows 98. Comments are welcome.

Did you download and use the updated Setup Wizard from Microsoft? There are a number of things fixed in it; it's freely downloadable from Microsoft's VFP 6 Updates Page
