Jolene,

Did you create VFP setup diskettes? And sure that it installed properly using the setup.exe? You can't just copy the files because the registry won't be updated.

If that's not the case have you included a config.fpw file in your project? Are you distributing it as a seperate file? Are you trying to send command line arguments to the VFP app?

>I have installed a VFP application on a computer and all the necesary runtime library files are distributed during the installation. However, when the application is ran, an error stating "Error locating config file - bad path?" appears. If you say ok to this, it displays a do dialog box from which you can choose the executable that I am trying to run. Eventually, the application will run so I am skeptical that the problem has anything to do with missing library files. Anyone with any suggestions as to what this problem is?
