Distributing a VFP application

I have a VFP application which I distribute to my customers. It is a compiled and linked program, myprog.exe. When I distribute it, I have learned to also include in the folder these files :

gdiplus.fll, msvcr71.dll, vfp9r.dll, vfprenu.dll

This all works fine. Is it possible to include these in the .exe program (I only distribute two .exe programs : myinit.exe, and myprog.exe)?

Thank you. Andrew

As Missy said, you have to distribute the libraries. What you can do is build a setup program, so that you don't have to think about what to include. A lot of VFP developers like InnoSetup: http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php. You'll find help in using it for VFP applications starting here: http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?Wiki~InnoSetup~Wiki.

No -- sadly, you need the libraries as well.
