Hi Mark,

You cannot include merge modules for VFP7 and VFP8 runtimes in the same install because it'll generate an error in ISX.

>Can I create an MSI containing a VFP7 exe, but also have the MSI contain both the VFP7 _and_ the VFP8 run-time support files? One big advantage of this is that it requires an administrator to install an MSI for "All Users". Since the exe we deploy automatically keeps itself up to date via HTTP, we can conceivably auto-jump the deployed exe from V7 to V8 in a seamless fashion if we can get the V7 and V8 runtime files installed with the V7 build of our app, and then let it auto-update to V8 when we're comfortable with it.
