>My VFP6 application uses SPELLCHK.APP to spell check a memo field. It works fine when I run my .APP under VFP6. But when I run my .EXE I get the error: 'The following library file must be in the FoxPro root directory FOXTOOLS.FLL.' Indeed, FOXTOOLS.FLL is in the FoxPro root directory and I've even tried putting it in my app directory and MS-DOS path but with the same result. How can I get my EXE to run correctly like my .APP?
>Any suggestions most appreciated.

A runtime file (.EXE) is probably calling the FoxPro root directory the place it's running VFP from. For an .EXE, that would be the WINDOWS\SYSTEM folder (where the runtime files are located).
