INFO: Limitations of Run-Time MS Graph

ID: Q112483


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, versions 3.0, 3.0b, 5.0, 6.0
  • Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5, 2.5a, 2.5b


SUMMARY

The Setup Wizard allows the Microsoft Graph run-time module to be included in distributed applications. However, the run-time module does not include the full functionality of the MS Graph application shipped with FoxPro.

WORKAROUNDS

  • Although the license agreement for MS Graph prohibits the distribution of the full version of MS Graph with applications, if the workstation on which the executable file is installed has the full version of MS Graph installed through FoxPro or another software package, that workstation will be able to access full graph functionality through the distributed executable file.


  • You can use a third-party graphics package instead of MS Graph to create graphs in distributed executables.



MORE INFORMATION

The MS Graph run-time module can only be used to view existing graphs that have been created and saved through the FoxPro Graph Wizard. The existing graphs cannot be updated to include new data and formatting changes, except using UPDATEGRPH. The run-time module also prohibits new graphs from being created.


REFERENCES

For more information about distributing files with your FoxPro 2.x application, see the Distribution Kit "User's Guide."
