FOXUSER.DBF ( a.k.a. the resource file ) is mainly for use during development, haven't yet found a reason to distribute it with any of my applications. To bypass the use / need for / building if not found of the resource file, include RESOURCE=OFF in the CONFIG.FPW file. You should then include CONFIG.FPW in your project files used for distribution, under "Other" tab in project manager, "Text files" in the TreeView. Hope this helps.
