And doing the above is 100% certain to fail under Win2K, so just use an installer that knows the requirements would be advisable. If you need to figure out the requirements, look at the VFP6R.DEP file that comes with VFP, as well as using the .REG file as a template for creating registry entries which are not added through self-registration.
