>After This.DisplayWelcomeMessage() our application comes crashing to a halt with a "File Does Not Exist" error message, BUT ONLY in the runtime and only on initial startup. If I run the finished exe in the full version of VFP, it executes without any problems. Once the registry entries are created, the app starts with runtime libraries no problem.

I did a search through the Mere Mortals archives here and found this thread #310131 which may be of help. It looks like a similar problem and there are several good suggestions and a solution in this instance.

Kind Regards,
