> I am using vfp 8.0. I have created an application that I use installsheild express to install. It works fine on all of my users machines except my own. When I install the app on my machine I get the following error Resource file version mismatch and then the error VFP can not start could not load resources. There are no resource files in the directory that the program is supposed to start in. I am not sure where the resource files are that the program is trying to access. I am also trying to run an exe as a scheduled task . When I run this scheduled task on the server where the exe resides I do not get the error. When I try to run the exe from my own computer I get the resource file error. So the resource files must be on my machine and not on the server. But I can not find them. The only resource files I found were in C:\documents and settings...... and I deleted them and still get the error. In this exe I also have a config file that sets resouce off.

Not clear, what do you mean, "The only resource files I found were in C:\documents and settings...... and I deleted them ". Resource file is, as in VFP Help:
*-----------------------
The Visual FoxPro resource file is a Visual FoxPro table that contains information on system and user-defined resources like keyboard macros, preferences, system window locations and sizes, diary entries, and so on.

The Visual FoxPro resource file defaults to FoxUser.dbf. Use SET RESOURCE to specify a different Visual FoxPro resource file.
*--------------------------------------



Usually the message you mentioned related to situation when you are working with several VFP different versions, and you do not specify resource file different names.

You could SET RESOURCE OFF in your application to prevent it from happenning.
