Hmmm ... the API declaration seems not to be done on the other machine. That's why the error occurs. VFP looks for a function or prg with the name of the API function. But thid doesn't really make any sense to me. You could set a breakpoint in the Init (in the line where the declare statement is) and in Get() method of cINIFile.
