SUMMARYFoxPro for Windows network installation modifies and copies many files during the two types of installations started with its setup switches, /A and /N. These switches are described below.
MORE INFORMATIONSETUP /ASETUP /A performs an administrative setup of FoxPro. It uncompresses, renames, and copies the files from the installation disks to the specified network directory. This directory will be used for the shared copy of FoxPro for the network. If SETUP /A is run twice, once on the server (which is appropriate) and then on the workstation (inappropriate) the following warning will appear:
When you are running an administrative setup on a shared copy of Windows, make sure that Windows is not being used elsewhere on the network. SETUP /NSETUP /N performs a network workstation setup of FoxPro. It requires a previous administrative setup of FoxPro. SETUP /N allows a shared copy of FoxPro to be run and requires the least amount of disk space. It prompts for a location to create a personal FOXPROW directory and copies the following files to this directory: FOXUSER.DBF FOXUSER.FPT Running this installation setup with a shared copy of Windows requires full rights to the shared Windows directory and the files in it, as well as to each personal Windows directory. If SETUP /N is run without full rights to the shared Windows directory, the following error message will be received:
During an installation in a shared Windows directory environment, SETUP /N will modify the following files in the personal Windows directory: WIN.INI (the [MSAPPS], [MS Proofing Tools], and [embedding] sections) REG.DAT It also copies the following files to the personal Windows directory: WINHELP.EXE WINHELP.HLP FOXPROFO.GRP (if told to create new group) It copies the following files to the shared Windows directory or to the personal Windows directory if the workstation is running a nonshared copy of Windows: OLECLI.DLL TOOLHELP.DLL OLESVR.DLL VER.DLL DDEML.DLL SHELL.DLL FOXPRINT.FOT FOXPRINT.TTF COMMDLG.DLL NOTE: The above files are copied and the .DLLs are modified each time SETUP /N is run.
