>>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.

Thank you for the reply Ed. Yes, I have downloaded the service pack and the latest update for the setup wizard. I can't believe I forgot to mention that in my message. I have linked two of the files to the HTML help, which I don't believe I will ever use. So I will try removing HTML help support in my installation. That hopefully will reduce the .ocx and .dll not registered errors, but I'm still concerned about the client "lockups". I found out today, one user upgraded to Win98 and has since stopped freezing. I hope that isn't going to be the solution. I'm really nervous about sending this thing out to hundreds of users!! Thanks again.
Marcus.
