Sorry for the delay. Thanks for supporting R&R.____If you haven^t installed R&R on your system using the actual Windows MSI, then it^s possible that the libraries aren^t present.____The files R&R is looking for (for the Librarian in this case), are:____VFP9R.DLL__VFP9RENU.DLL__VFP9T.DLL____We install them into the __WINDOWSSYSTEM32 __folder on 32-bit systems and __WINDOWSSYSWOW64__folder on 64-bit systems____If you don^t need the Librarian, you can turn this feature off by editing the RRW.INI file and setting "LIBRARIAN=OFF" in the [Defaults] section of the file. There are several, more detailed explanations of this process in other posts on the forum, here.

Hi Chris:____ I have all the suggestes files in their proper places (and in other places too).____ I also have NO rrw.ini file in either RRW9 or RRW10 directories.____ So, I cannot set the LIBRARIAN=OFF ____ But, I guess I can carry on with this minor irritation.____Thank you for trying to help____-Mel Smith__

Hi Chris:____ Somehow I haven^t been able to post. However, I have ensured that all the needed VFPxxxx.DLL files are located in all appropriate directories, and I still get the VFP Missing message when exiting and edit session.____ It is not a serious problem just irritating.____ btw, There is NO rrw.ini file in RRW9 or RRW10 on my machines, so I can^t SET LIBRARIAN=OFF____ But thanks for responding and for the suggestions.____-Mel Smith______

Mel,____Open a text editor and type in LIBRARIAN=OFF____Now save it as rrw.ini in the folder where you want it.
