Gaylen, thanks for finding this out - I knew it had to be something like this...
>Claude - found the problem. Tried to run the WebAppbuilder from window's explore and got the same error. I then checked the about screen and found that the program it called was VFP6 SP5. Having never loaded VFP6 on the computer I was using I would have never thought that possible. Although on several occassions I downloaded applications from UT which included runtimes.
>
>So I deleted all the vfp6 runtime files and tried to run WebbAppBuilder from the start menu again. A screen popped up and said "Windows cannot find VFP6Run.exe". Then asked me to type in the executable to be used instead. I found the VFP7 executable and entered the path for it and lo and behold webAppbuilder worked just fine.

>I'm not sure what happened but am now leary of downloading applications which includes the VFP run times.

>Any idea what might have happened.

>>The only thing I can think of is if there is some sort of automatic pathing in your config file maybe or maybe this is sort of a flukey thing in XP. This never happens to me in Win2K. Anyway, you know how to run WebAppBuilder.app in your environment now - directly from VFP instead of the AVFP file group...
>>>Only 1 WebbAppbuilder.app and it is in \dotcomsolution. When called from the vfp window it works, when called from the start menu, it errors. I added some text to the form so I knew I was using the same appliction both times.

>>>>This is interesting. The original WebAppBuilder is in the \dotcomsolution directory, but, unless you directed your compile there, you probably ran the one in the same directory as the project. So, it looks like the one you compiled is working. Could you verify this? You probably have 1 WebAppBuilder in \dotcomsolution and 1 in \dotcomsolution\avfpdemo2 ...
>>>>>Don't know if this will help. I substituted the code below and recompiled the program to c:\dotComSolutions directory. When I ran the webappbuilder.app program from within the command window the program does just fine and will build the correct mtdll. When I run that same app from the start menu I get the error message "feature not Available" and the mtdll is not created. The start menu calls the same WebAppBuilder application as I used in the command window. Not sure what to make of all of this.
