Subject:  Re: Compiling FWX files
I am not sure I understand the interaction between versions 2.11 and 4.3. The former does come with FWXCompile.exe and requires it for compiling .fwx files when a full version of VFP is not being used. The latter does not install FWXCompile.exe and requires that you use the compile functionality fwadmin.fwx script.
 
What was the exact error that you got and what exactly were you doing at the time?

We have a server that is still running version 2.11. When I tried to compile using version 4.3, I got an error that I did not get under 2.11.
 
How can I compile the .fwx files for 2.11 without the FWXCompile.exe program?
 
Thanks

The FWXCompile program is only installed if you are running VFP 5.  You don't need FWXCompile for other VFP versions, because you can compile directly on the server, using either fwadmin.asp (recommended), or the fwCompile class.  For details please refer to the What's New in FoxWeb page of the documentation.

Using Foxweb version 3.0, the helpfile states that I can compile .fwx files into .fxp files using...

DO FWXCompile.EXE WITH cFileSpec [, bRecurse [, bForce [, bEncrypt]]]

but I cannot find FWXCompile.exe anywhere (I've searched the whole HDD).  Could anyone tell me where I can find this file?

Many thanks,
