Craig, I didn't include the CONFIG.FPW in the project (even went back and double checked). I even went to a brand new directory, where the only file was the PRG I used for my test EXE (see VFP5 EXE Problem thread) and wrote a new CONFIG file with a different extension. VFP simply said 'Cannot find Config file' and loaded its default values.

Edward, I'm beginning to think that whether a bug is a feature (and vice versa) is a matter of what your program is doing at any given moment!

Thanks,
Barbara
