Craig McFarli #3 / 7	VFP8 application deployed with SetupFactory I have the same problem using InstallShield Express Prof. What is gdiplus.dll? Is this new to VFP 8? I have my runtime files in the application directory can this gdiplus file be there also? Does it need to be registered?

You do not have to register it. I'd install it in the same folder as where you install the other vfp runtime files. --- Eric den Doop www.foxite.com - The Home Of The Visual FoxPro Experts - Powered By VFP8

Brett_Slatter #7 / 7	VFP8 application deployed with SetupFactory Hi Josh, Contact Brett at Setup Factory. After trying every product on the market, my conviction is that Setup Factory is the best solution for deploying VFP apps. They offer native support up to VFP7. I have already requested support for VFP8. Setup Factory is customer driven. Contact them personally and persistently to make your request known. Setup Factory is a phenomenal product. (No, I have no interest). Setup Factory for VFP is is sophisticated they include all the tools to let you add a LiveUpdate Feature (ala Norton Antivirus) with a few click-n-point "Actions". I think the Fox team made a big mistake in going with InstallShield. SetupFactory is the same quick & dirty, yet extremely powerful, solution at the Setup Wizard ala 6.0. Hope this helps. -- Brett_Slattery Quote: > We have an application that we're deploying using SetupFactory. > However, when we deploy it; we're getting "VFP8R.DLL is corrupted or invalid." > it's not. > we're installilng vfp8r.dll, vfp8t.dll, msvcrt*.dll, and the help files... > What are we missing?
