I've assumed that you've written your post-setup executable in VFP and included it in your distribution along with your main application .EXE. Drop the post-setup executable in your application directory and run it from there. It works fine. You need to use the %s parameter in the path of the post-setup executable. I've done exactly this in the past with VFP5 and 6 with no problem; since it's in the application directory, FULLPATH(SYS(0)) works unambiguously.
