I install the runtime files into a specific folder and read the directory information from an ini file. That gets around the problem.

My (sole remaining) client (I'm officially retired) is running my VFP9 app, with run-times in the app folder, on a machine that also has VFP6 installed. I assume that the VFP6 run-times were registered as part of the install. We have never had any problems. If we did, I'd uninstall VFP6, since we only use it on rare occassions to look at data problems.
