Thanks for the suggestions.

We don't use any ActiveX controls and the machine in question is running Win2000. The software is installed locally on the offending machine and though the VFP run-time DLL is not registered, it is installed in the same directory as the EXE. We have used this approach numerous times and have never had to register the DLL before.

Any other ideas?

Thanks,
Scott
