Hi,

Keith Chisarik here from Sigma Data Systems Inc. I have written an application in VFP 6.0, I am at the stage where I'm making install disks. This process went well for a Win 95/98 target using WiseInstaller 8.03, however, when I changed the install script to install my required dll's in the windows\system32 directory of the NT target machine instead of the windows\system directory all kinds of bad things happen. The install program correctly copies the dll's and ocx's to Winnt\system32 but during the registration process many many errors are reported. The end result if the test machine wont even boot. Any insights you have on what I may be doing wrong will be GREATLY appreciated. I was under the impression that the only difference between a 95/98 install and a NT install was the correct system directory for dll's, ocx's, etc. MANY THANKS IN ADVANCE.

Specific errors:

1) varied dll's not found (shlwapi, urlmon, etc , etc)...and when I add them it doesnt help it just cant find others

2) "PROCEDURE ENTRY POINT CreateToolhelp32Snaphot cannot be located"
