Re: Whene generating instalation disks...

starting with vfp7, they started providing an express version of installshield, which is found external to the foxpro environment. look under program files -> installshield.
I don't care for this setup program at all, i've been using setupstream instead. i find it much easier and nicer to work with.

I have 4.41 Gb, I think is enough,
I tried in my office also with XP and I got the same error message.
I have visual version 8 but I can not see the wizard for generating the distribution disks, where in this version is this wizard located ? or does it have another name ?

thanks

it could be that your hard drive is full and it cant create the necessary temp files needed to create the executable. or your hard drive is corrupted and when it tries to allocate free space on the hard drive to create a temp file, it gets an error.

make sure you have enough free space, should have over 100mb or so on any system free, or you will run into problems.
next run scandisk or chkdsk and make sure you have no hard drive problems.

Hi!
When I try to generate the distribution disks,
fox pro 5, sends me a message that there is a problema with some file with name
0090359.tmp, it says that I have to check that is no being used by another application and try again
I am using Visual FoxPro 5, in a windows XP machine.
Please, help !, would be that I am using XP and the fox is too old ???

thanks a lot friends
