We have an application that is compiled in VFP7. It runs fine with Windows 2000, but when you run it on Windows 98, the windows explorer crashes. I would appreciate if someone has a sloution for this. Thanks.

Can you specify at what point it crashes? Report? Opening a form? Network? Mike Gagnon

The user is complaining that when you you double click on shortcut to run the application, it gives you message regarding Windows Explorer (at this point explorer crashes). When you close the application, the whole system crashes. We don't have this problem anywhere else. We have many clients and they are all on Windows 2000. Hope this helps you understand the problem. Thanks.

Was there a proper installation done? Meaning with Install-Shield or Windows Installer, that would install all the up-to-date runtime files and Windows components required to run the application?

Yes, and basically I had this problem before when I was working with another company. I was using VFP5 at that time and Windows Explorer was crashing when we run application on windows 98. However, I would re-install and see if that helps.
