I am using Visual FoxPro 7 to develop an application for end-users.

1. What are the necessary runtime files for Visual
Foxpro 7?

2. What about for ODBCs such as: VFPODBC.DLL?

3. I am also using the following DLLs:
VFP7R.DLL
VFP7RENU.DLL
MSVCR70.DLL
Thanks,

Leo ;-)
 
Leo,
While you have listed the "required" files for the VFP 7.0 runtime, they may not be sufficient for a given workstation. The OS and update level may require a number system files to be added / updated. You should consider using the InstallShield program supplied with VFP 7.0 to make sure everything gets installed / updated properly.

VFP 7.0 is now supported by the VFPOLEDB client. While the older ODBC client can access the data, it doesn't support many of the new features - especially the database events and stored procedures.

HI
1. VFP7R.DLL is the normal run time for most application types.
2. Run-time resource files are named using the format Vfp7aaa.dll, where "7" is the version number and "aaa" is a three-letter code representing the language. For example, the code ENU stands for United States English, the code DEU stands for German, and the code FRA for French. The run-time resource files for these languages are therefore Vfp7renu.dll, Vfp7rdeu.dll, and Vfp7rfra.dll, respectively
3. VFP7T.DLL is the special multithreaded run time for highly scalable in-process server applications such as those created for use with Microsoft Transaction Server.
4. VFPOLEDB is supposd to be better. Rick has already commented on this.
Hope this helps :-)
