>Did you register these three files? You may also need to update some of the system files that these depend on if the server hasn't been kept "up-to-date".

Not sure what you mean by registering the 3 files. How do check and how I do that?

You can use the Depends utlity to check what files are dependent. That's why

What is the depends utility and how do I use it?

sometimes it easier to let the hard work that someone else already did to create the installer merge files is really easier in the long run.

I tried using installsheild express that comes with VFP 7, but could not find documentation and screens are no help.
