Mabe this will help,
you need to create an EXE. however, the EXE can just have a few lines of code in it. like
***startup.prg
set bla bla bla
do myapp
read events


**mystartfile.prg

and your app could have all the rest of your compiled prg , classes, etc.


or just compile the entire thing to one exe. thats your choice. but you cant compile to an app only, unless your friends have the vfp development version.

>>I'm confused. I have a small project that runs fine. I want to distribute it to a couple of friends without them seeing the source code. They do not have vfp on their computers. Do I build an .app file or win32 executable/com server(exe) and why. Which one of these to I place in my apllication directory for setup to work on?

In the beginning, there was a command prompt, and all was well.
