PRB: "Feature Not Available" Error in Distribution Version

• Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, version 3.0
• Microsoft FoxPro for MS-DOS, versions 2.0, 2.5, 2.5a, 2.5b, 2.6
• Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5, 2.5a

SYMPTOMS

A FoxPro executable file fails in the Distribution version of FoxPro with a "Feature not available" error message. However, the executable file works without error in the Development version.

RESOLUTION

There are two workarounds to this problem:

1. Eliminate the macro substitution from the application.



2. Create an application that refers to the substituted variables and include this application in the project. Do not call this application from any other application in the project.
