Hey Tracy, Thanks for the feedback. Yes indeed - this is one of the Apps where I MUST open VFP in Admin mode in order to generate the EXE file.
And - when you said "...I usually delete them" - you mean that you normally delete the VBR & TLB Files that were Generated?

I was Quite surprised by this - as I don't remember seeing these files before. And, I did a Google search - but, some of the results were confusing and seemingly conflicting - such as this one programmer forum where a person asked: > "BUILD EXE why no .vbr and .tlb files?" > ...and one response they got was: > "You're thinking of VB.

When you drag an interface from the Object Browser to a PRG, it will add that flag. I usually delete them. When building a project that has a class flagged as OLEPublic, VFP is required to be in Administrative mode. It updates the registry during the build to update the flags.
