I have been asked to create one of those auto run programs for a CD of demo software. The auto run program will simply display a window with the demo program names and corrisponding Install buttons.

I would like to use VFP6 and a Top-Level-Form (hoping DCOM has been updated). Can I run a VFP6 EXE from a CD without first installing the runtime files if the runtime files are located on the CD?

I know how to get the autorun EXE to start (AUTORUN.INF, OPEN=...) but are there any tricks or traps I sould watch out for in running the VFP6 program from a CD? I don't have time now to learn VB or Delphi which may be better tools (but I really would rather figure out how do to this in VFP).

Any help, tips or warnings would be much apprecieated.
