Your .FLL file is trying to return some kind of error, and it can't, so FoxPro thinks it's a program and tries to compile it. More than likely, since this is only happening on one machine, that machine is missing some other .DLL file that your .FLL file is dependant on. If you have Visual Studio, there is a DEPENDS.EXE you could try running on the .FLL file and see what other .DLL's it is dependant on. It's probably MSVCRT.DLL or MSVCRT2.DLL that's missing on the one machine, but that's just a SWAG.
