I use INNO to package the VFP & C++ runtimes as well as some third party libraries I use and put all that in the same folder as my EXE instead of common files.

But I took the update from a web site as an install supposed to be the latest, but it seems it was not and did not update 2 out of 3 files. I also heard briefly from my client, who tried the same update on an XP machine, including all the 7423 files. He says its all 7423 but this time its reversed in that the app can not see files in a directory. I wonder if we need different runtimes for XP. I have yet to talk to him as he is on travels.

It was a post-SP2 hot patch and basically required you to manually copy the new VFP9.exe to wherever you have VFP installed; update the common files location with the new DLLs; and finally update the MSM files if you are using that to package the runtimes for distribution.
