>>I have an VFP 3.0 application I created on a shared drive on our network. I want to use the setup wizard to create the install files on the network. Since the forms, reports , tables, ect are already on the network drive, do they need to be included in the application/install files? My thought was to just include the kickoff.prg which sets the default to the network drive and runs the other forms, reports, ext from the network. When installing the application on an end-user's machine I don't want all the forms, reports, tables to be installed on their local drive since this will be a multi-user application. All I would want on their machine would be the run-time version and the kickoff.prg. How do I go about achiving this? Any help would be appreciated.
>>Thanks

Alternatively you can do one more thing. And that is making APP (application file) and since the runtime will be at one place in network, You can put the VFP runtime library (DLL's) in network. Since the APP file includes all the reports tables and other files, you need not bother about that.

By putting the DLL at one place multiple users will share the same DLL, and you can reduce the amount of space.
