The config.fpw file has to be in the startup dir, but it looks like this is OK according to the above.
But it looks like you are saying something like do config.fpw in your code.
The config file is automaticly read when the app starts. You don't have to run it seperately. Thats why it gave you errors and why the screen title was already changed before you reached that line of code.
So don't run the config.fpw file as if it was a normal program
