I don't use the installation setup that comes with VFP 6 because it requires (if I remember correctly) a "target/application" directory. And I prefer that my setup just installs DLLs without application directory. That's why I use WISE. And it works for OSs other than XP. I will have to learn how to use InstallShield and see if I can build a SETUP for VFP 6.
Thank you for your help.
