Hi Fred,

The whole sheban is at a clients place, but here it is as best as I remmember:

The foxrun.pif is located in the directory (on the server) where the application is. The config.fpw on the server however, points all the work files to the users machine. I think that's the problem. I also noticed that when I run the compiled app outside of foxpro, I don't have the problem. It's only when I run it from inside that it doesn't close down correctly.

So why would I want the app to run from inside foxpro? I was having a problem with the fonts on the reports. They are just big black marks. No fonts, and I can't remember what causes that. I will post a message.

Thanks again.

Daniel
