Steve,
My app is copied over our Wan connection, to there server, and the Foxtools is located right in the directory with the app. I went so far as to even hardcode the path to find the library. What was wierd was that one person could load it, and the rest couldn't... I am looking at a framework that uses foxtoools, and don't wanna dump it for that reason... (Visual FoxExpress..)

Is it possible to have the foxtools copied down to their local machines and pathed that way??

Thanx!
