Working with VFP6:

When I started sharing the EXE in Bata/Bolivia, I just copied the EXE in a shared folder, plus the files VFP*.DLL for which I did a search in c:\windows in my machine.

Later, I created a "dummy" setup, installing calc.exe (the setup wizard required an executable!) to each user's machine.

You can also copy the executable to every machine. This will reduce network traffic (although I didn't find this a significant problem). The download section includes loaders that will take care of this.
