Problem:
When I give my .exe file to someone to run on thier computer they get missing dll errors.
If you search their computer for the missing dll's you will find instances of the missing dll's in several different folders - so the subject dll's are not missing - just not found.

Solution: Have them put your .exe file in a folder of it's own and then search for the so called missing dll's when found just COPY them to the same folder.

When you run the .exe from it's folder everything will work just fine.

Alternate Solution:

Copy the missing dll's from the dbpro compiler folder on your computer put them into a new folder and add your .exe file to this same folder.
Create a zip file containing the files in said folder and give them the zip file with the instructions to unzip it to a new folder on their computer. Run the .exe file from this folder and the dll's are no longer a problem. As long as the exe. file and the dll's are in the same folder the exe. knows where to look.

In both solutions a shortcut can be made calling the .exe in the new folder so the program can be run from the desktop if so desired.
