Hi Mark,

I use Installshield Express 3.0 and VFP 6.0 without problem but I have had to build a VFP Runtime Install Set through the Fox Setup Wizard... so I imagine it only installs Fox 7 runtime files.
What I do for Fox 6.0 is use the Fox Setup Wizard to create an install set that adds a text file called FoxInstalled.txt in the user's temp folder. The ensuing install set contains all the Fox 6 runtime files. You can then have this run as part of your installshield setup. Previous versions of InstallShield Express didn't deal with Fox runtimes so I had to set the InstallShield projects up as VB projects and work as described above.
There's probably a better or quicker way of doing it but that's what I've done in the past anyway.
regards,
Ben
