Hi Jonathan,
- A main EXE that's compiled with VFP6 will NOT accept any APPs that are compiled with VFP7!
- You'll have to recompile the main EXE with VFP7.
- Also, you'll have to distribute several files.
- VFP7R.DLL (to be registered with regsvr32)
- VFP7RENU.DLL (no need to register)
- MSVCR70.DLL (to be put in the Window\System32 map and to be registered with regsvr32)
- There's no need to recompile all APPs. The VFP7 runtime files can handle the VFP6 APPs very nicely.
Groet,
Peter de Valença
Constructive frustration is the breeding ground of genius.
If there’s no willingness to moderate for the sake of good debate, then I have no willingness to debate at all.
