Hmm... I always run the startup prg in VFP IDE for debugging, and then
once everything is written/tested/debugged, I build EXE's(usually on
the build machine with a script/wizard) and test as a user would run
it(in the destination user directory(say, c:\appname\ vs.
c:\dev\appname), letting the exe find the runtimes, dependencies,
etc.) whenever possible-- eliminating the possibility of it finding
dev versions of things...
