>>I would like to distribute my application on CD and enable the Autorun feature. I did this numerous times in VFP5 successfully, but I'm getting an error in VFP6. As per Article Q172078, I renamed the setup.exe to autorun.exe. But when I run the autorun.exe, after a few steps I get a message saying that the file 'setup.exe' cannot be opened. Of course it can't, it no longer exists, but why is the installation looking for it? I tried this with both the 'netsetup' option and the 'websetup' option and had the same problem. I've already upgraded my Setup Wizard. Anyone else do this successfully?

According to the KB article, I should rename setup.exe to autorun.exe, setup.lst to autorun.lst and create a file called autorun.inf with the lines:

[autorun]
OPEN=AUTORUN.EXE

This is how I did it in VFP5 and it worked great. Now I'm getting an error that it's looking for the setup.exe file. The path is correct, but the file doesn't exist because I renamed it. Why is it specifically looking for setup.exe? According to the KB article, this should work for VFP6, too.
