Distributing the EXE

[Guest_imported]

I've created an executable with Visual FoxPro 5.0. Rather than use the Setup Wizard, I want to create self-extracting files using PK Zip for Windows. Other than the EXE, what other files are required in order to install the application on other workstations?

Hi,

3 files: vfp5.dll , vfp500.dll , vfp5enu.dll . Copy them into system dir or execute file dir

I would recommend you use the Setup Wizard and generate a web executable. Basically, the wizard creates a single self-extracting setup executable and uses maximum compression for creating the smallest possible .exe file.
