I don't know about VFP8, but VFP 7 requires

VFP7T.DLL
VFP7RENU.DLL
MSVCR70.DLL

I would guess that there is also a VFP8RENU.dll thay you are missing. Do you create a setup disk to install the application? I don't know if VFP8 Dlls must be registered or not but that may be the problem. Normally these dlls reside in the windows system or system32 folder. A setup would properly register any required dll.

Hope this helps.
