>Something I failed to mention previously, I copied the VFP6RUN.EXE, VFP6RENU.DLL, VFP6R.DLL and VFP6T.DLL to the same directory of the EXE and the EXE now runs. So, I guess the question remains, how does an EXE created in VFP6 locate the runtime files? I'm sure the WinNT\System32 directory is searched, but I wonder what is happening to cause it not to be in the search in my situation? Is the registry searched to determine the windows system directory?

Unfortunately, just copying files is not an adequate installation of the runtime; I'd strongly recommend creating at least a runtime-only install with the Setup Wizard, since there are a number of common file dependencies, as well as registry requirements, that need to be addressed during the installation of the runtime. If you wan to use a tool such as InstallShield to create the runtime distribution, there is a .DEP file in the DISTRIB.SRC directory that outlines the runtime file dependencies, and there's a template .REG file to show you how to create some additional standar registry entries used by VFP6's runtime.

You also will need to register any ActiveX components used by your application on each workstation.

>>>>I created an EXE from my VFP6 project and then ran the EXE several times with no problem. I ran VFP6, modified a program I was working on and then closed VFP6. I then proceeded to run the EXE I created and ran earlier and I get the "Cannot located the VFP support library" message. I then created a setup using the VFP6 setup wizard and installed the EXE using this method. I continue to get the same message. I even uninstalled and reinstalled VFP6 and VS SP3. I'm still getting the same message. I have VFP5 installed on my system as well and EXE's created in VFP5 still run fine.
