Good idea. One question though: Does WSH require anything on the client's machine (else than what the client get's with the normal Visual FoxPro setup Wizard?)

See the article George Tasker and I wrote on the Wscript.Shell object for the October issue of the VFUG newsletter; www.vfug.org, or try any of the WSH sites from my sig block.
