>A client is running a simple vfp3 app on a very simple windows 95 peer to peer network. One computer on the network will not run the application from a shortcut but will run it from Windows Explorer (by selecting the server's drive, clicking on the app's folder, and then double clicking on the app's exe.) We can right-click and drag the apps exe out of the explorer onto the desktop and create a shortcut and the app will not run. It complains of all sorts of things like "class not defined" or "can't add object to grid". All the other computers on the network have exactly the same setup and they run just fine.

Are you sure the client has (all) the (most-recent) VFP runtime files? Are there any external (.ini) files that need to be on the client? Any special directories (for .tmp storage, etc)?
