This may be DCOM related - see my entry in the FAQ regarding detecting whether DCOM has been installed properly on a system.

Unless the VFP runtime, including all necessary components, are installed and correctly registered, the VFP created executable will not run. The easiest thing to do is to create a minimal install of the runtime and components (it doesn't have to include your executable) and install the necessary runtime files on
each system that will run the VFP app.
Simply copying files or making them available in a shared directory is not an adequate installation of the VFP runtime components.>suggestions please (i will research the problem in the meantime).
