Joel, no, VFP7 ISExpress doesn't have that same problem with tho post-setup. The problem is just with Custom Actions...

We settled on a custom c++ dll that uses CreateProcess. It's nice - we can have really small installations this way that include only the vfp6t.dll instead of the bulkier regular one.
