Title:
Running exe over a network
I have a problem running a 7.0sp1 application from a networked drive. Here's the setup:
User systems 2000 current SP, VFP7 SP1 and VFP6 current SP
The project and dependant files are the same between 6 and 7.
File distribution on NetDrive: and C:
runtime6.exe
VFP6ENU.DLL
VFP6R.DLL
FoxTools.fll
runtime7.exe
VFP7ENU.DLL
VFP7R.DLL
All of these files are in the same directory on the server.
From the explorer on a local machine:
VFP6 executable runs both locally and over the net.
VFP7 executable runs locally but not over the net
"Visual Foxpro Cannot Start. Could not load resources.. Press F1 for Help"
I can run if I place a copy of the VFP7.exe on the net and use a shortcut calling VFP and passing the application as a parameter but this seems to me to be a serious hack.
I have built on C: and copied to the NetDrive as well as built directly on the NetDrive.
I'm currently stumped. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Dennis Keith
