>Just curious: Have you experimented with deleting the old VFP_GIDPlus.msm and copying the new msm into its folder, renaming it to VFP_GIDPlus.msm (the name that installshield expects)?

Yes I did. ISE5 located the bad VFP_GIDPlus.msm anyway (renamed but still in the folder). I think the app checks within candidate dependent MSMs for the contents it is after, so it looks like waste of time to rename the file.

I'm prepared to stand corrected though.
