I guess I'm not seeing how using WSH is better way to load an application EXE than just using Foxpro code itself compiled in it's own EXE. How do I ensure WSH is installed on all the hundreds of PCs involved in an update? Do I need to include code that installs WSH? How does the VBS file execute? Is it automatically done when it is first detected on the hard drive of the local machine? Do you realize now how much I don't know about this?
