Do you have a SET PATH TO setting in the app? Does it include the Plugins directory? If so, are you referencing the Plugins directory as a relative path or an absolute path? You should be setting a path to Plugins as a relative path.

This is the line the error occurs on. I have a second machine that has Windows XP SP2 set up on it. Since the machine is not logged in, there are no drive mappings and I have to use UNCs to run the application. Now when I run the plugin for automation, I get a "File not found" error. If I click ok, the plugin will continue as planned, except for this error. Here's the catch, I don't get the error on my development PC at all. The only difference between the two is I have foxpro and VS.Net 2002 installed on the dev PC.
