>>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.

I don't know yet. One user went to Win98 and is having no problems. Another we switched back to our version in VFP3. The thing these people had in common were unsuccessfull installations, however, I don't yet know if this is related. I did some testing over the weekend and found that I cannot get a successful installation in Win95 or NT4 with DCOM98/95 and NTSP3 installed respectively. I still get "cannot register" either hhctrl.ocx or foxhhelpps.dll. I could get successfull installations if I installed IE4 on the operating system. The good news for me is that I removed HTML help from the installation and received no errors and a successfull install on 98 and NT4 with the appropriate service packs installed (DCOM98/NTSP3). I haven't tried my new installation on the offending sites yet. Hopefully it will do the trick. I'll let you know. Regarding HTML help, it is an option when you use the setup wizard. You would have to select it when it asks which components you want installed like VFP6 runtime, ODBC, Microsoft Graph, etc...
