I have a system that is written in Visual Foxpro 5.0 and I am ready to set up the users PC's with this application. In our environment here, it is strongly requested to run everything from the Server. In previous versions of Fox, I could put the ESL file with the Executable and other tables, etc, and run the executable without installing anything on the users PC if it was on a Win 95 PC.

Now, I get an error message that says "Visual Foxpro cannot start. Could not load resources...". I have tried putting the VFP500.DLL with the Executable or the Windows\System directory. I'm a little baffled as to why this won't run. According to Fox documentation, it should work, unless I missed something.

This PC is a Pentium 166 with Windows 95, 32 MB Ram, just out of the box. Plenty of disk space. I don't want to run the Setup Wizard unless I have to, but if that is my only choice I will.

Does anyone know if I am missing something? I've tried it with my Config.fpw/without it, with and without my Resource file, and I always get the same thing.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
