I'm devloping a typical application with VFP 6.0. under Windows 98. I have no problem during development nor during .EXE construction.

When I take the distribution diskettes to a target machine the .EXE application sends a message:

"Win 32 Not a valid application"

and it only happens under Windows 2k...

Am I moving (without noticing it) a virus with my app?
Do I need to apply a service path to Win 2k?
Is ther another cause of this problem? Take away all the buzz of this biz and what do you get? 01000100101010...
 
Have you copied all the required run-time library files. If you are not sure.. sujject, you create a SETUP file using VFP wizard and then transfer to the dstination using SETUP.

YOu can also copy the runtime library files and the exe file.

That's reasonable. I'm using setup wizard but I can double check runtime libraries...

But which are the "basic" run time libraries used by VFP? I'm not using extra Activex Controls neither another kinda external controls? BTW: I´m developing with the spanish distribution of VFP (if you can tell me which files apply in the english version would be great...).

Would you like to check out the .EXE product ramani? (it would be risky!) Take away all the buzz of this biz and what do you get? 01000100101010...
 
1. VFP6R.DLL is the normal run time for most application types.
2. Run-time resource files are named using the format Vfp6raaa.dll, where "6" is the version number and "aaa" is a three-letter code representing the language. For example, the code ENU stands for United States English, the code DEU stands for German, and the code FRA for French. The run-time resource files for these languages are therefore Vfp6renu.dll, Vfp6rdeu.dll, and Vfp6rfra.dll, respectively

3. VFP6T.DLL is the special multithreaded run time for highly scalable in-process server applications such as those created for use with Microsoft Transaction Server.
