Jim,

This is only a guess...

In the code that runs the menu, or runs the .prg (or the set procedure command), is the path explicitely stated? For example, do you say something like:
do mrnu\menu1.mpr
If so, remove the relative path from the DO command. In develop environment, you can use SET PATH to make sure it will find the procedures and menus when testing your app (when not running the .exe).

In order to get my compiled EXE to work on the target machine, I had to include under the home folder, a MRNU and a PROG folder with an instance of the menu file that it used and an instance of the procedure file (prg). When running, the app uses the latest version (compiled into it) and not the ancient ones in those folders. However, if they are not sitting there, it would not run.
