      1 problem at a time.
      Your original problem was running your FM program on a system.
      manually copy the files to your new system (LEAVE SUF OUT OF IT) and get your app to run.

      Are you successful?

        The FMP Runtime program (Tip and Idea Customer DB.USR) needs to be launced by the Tips And Ideas Customer DB.exe file.

        as stated in #13...After I bind the FMP program I'm always able to run it by launching with the .exe file. However, after I create the setup and install the program on either XP or Vista, the .exe will not launch the program (Tip and Idea Customer DB.USR).

        Sorry if I created some confusion. Yeasterday I worked on this problem for 14 hrs trying different things w/o success.

          I have no idea what you mean by "bind".. but if you can copy your files from to your new computer & get it running, you can do the same using SUF.

          You seem to not understand what I'm suggesting..

          Leave suf out of the equation completely.

          Start over.

          Have a new clean machine
          Copy your FM files to this new machine (over a network or off cd) NOT via an installer, just "COPY" using explorer or dos.

          Once you get that working, you'll know the steps needed to replicate with an installer.
