Hi,
On Swedish winXP and win2K, my application (vfp7 built) just dies. The welcome screen appears but when releasing that form, everything shuts down silently without messages. It seems to happen when I turn on event processing with READ EVENTS in the code. For English winOS and Swedish win98, everything works fine.

My application is packed with Installshield Express for VFP7. I have included the merge modules Visual C++ 7.0 Runtime Libraries and the Visual FoxPro 7 Runtime Libraries (and MAPI things for my email functions).

I cannot find anything similar in the FAQs. Does anyone have a clue?

Thanks,
Micael
 
I don't have a clue, but you can use 'SET COVERAGE TO applog.txt' to figure out which line is the last one run before the 'shut down'. Don't forget to issue a 'SET COVERAGE TO' to turn it off.

The similar pronlem was described by Anders Altberg. (ProFox mailing list)Problem is related to Windows File Protection system when you include VC++ runtime modules.

The problem was a grid with height<20 used as title bar for a list object. Funny that the problem only occured on the OS'es mentioned above. I'm however happy that it works now :)
 
That's good to hear. What a strange solution.
