John, When I'm testing, I use a custom icon pointing to the VFP9.EXE and use the -C parameter to launch a specific config.fpw. In this I have two lines: Resource=off Command=Do startup.prg The startup.prg can do some custom setup, such as creating an object and binding to the screen for right click shortcut menu, etc.. But it launches the compiled EXE with DO myapp.exe The debugger and data session windows become available. The config.fpw compiled into myapp.exe will not be used since the VFP session is already running. Certain levels of ReFox encryption will NOT run in this scenario.
