Sorry if I where not clear on the problem. All I need to do is get theis RUNTIME to work. >> Download (or download it to your computer and copy it) the appropriate runtime installer from the dBASE website onto your customer's computer.   Run the installer and then try your program. My concern was that you'd said that the only way you could get your program to run on the customer's computer was to install dBASE 12. Unless the customer pays for a dBASE licence this is not allowed. Mervyn.
