>I converting an application from VFP6 to VFP8 and have a program called CONVERT which handles some code for bar codes. In VFP6 (and earlier) there is no problem. Now in VFP8 I am getting an error that the CONVERT.EXE is not found. The program is in the project. For some reason, VFP8 is search the path instead of the program in the EXE. I have another program that uses the same function and I do not get that error. Any ideas why it behaves this way?

Is this other program that works a VFP program? What version? How is it calling it? Is it in the same path/directory as the CONVERT source file?

Is the convert source file marked as included in the project?

Does it error in development as well as in the EXE?

How are you calling it? e.g. CONVERT(), DO CONVERT, etc.

Is your CONVERT a PRG or function within a PRG? If it's a function w/in a PRG, is the prg in the SET PROCEDURE listing?

SWAG [if a PRG]: Try deleting all FXPs for PRGs in the project. Recompile using COMPILE command (not using recompile all build option). Then rebuild.
