ADDPROP5.FLL is not a "standard" part of VFP5. It was done by a third party. The VFP install does not know what dependencies third party products may have, so it didn't know it needed MSVCRT.DLL in order to work correctly. This is true of all third party .FLL's,/.DLL's/.OCX's or whatever. They either have to tell you what they need, or you have to figure it out yourself. The VFP installer is NOT going to do it for you.
