Hi Javier,

>So is there anyway to protect the EXE from being decompiled and the code copied?

All application that contain VCXes are vulnerable to decompilation of those VCXes in all current versions of VFP (I haven't checked the final release of VFP 8 yet) with all protection tools that I'm aware of. While it is possible to protect these apps, it's not a matter of simply using a tool, but requires an awful lot of work and redesign of the application. Basically, you have to prevent any non-application code to be executed which is a difficult task given VFP's flexible design.
