>Doing that would install a whole bundle of DLL files which you don't need - what you could do (and what I intend doing) is create an installation of a small app, install it on a spare PC and take off the files you need (VFP500.DLL & maybe the files Sanjay mentioned) and put these in your windows\system directory - create a backup of these files for future. You should find VFP500.DLL and .ENU in your windows\system directory - NOTE: I can't find them on my PC (NT4) at work but they are here at home (W95)!

That's good if I don't need all that. Our app fits zipped on 1 disk, but I always had to send along those 5 other disks.

I'll try that.

Thanks,
