I installed (copied) a VFP exe on a network (Novell) drive and Vfp300.esl in the same directory. Run it from a workstation (Win95) and everything went fine. VFP was never installed on the station. This was a very simple VFP3 application. The directory was not read-only.

I think that you need more than Vfp500.dll for VFP5. As for the licences for OCX, AFAIK, you don't need to worry for runtime only.
