I was just fighting with a VS application I delivered to a client. They now have one W7 64 bit computer running GP 2010. The other machines are XP. On all the XP computers I copied the executable into the GP 2010 subfolder and created a shortcut in GP pointing to that executable. They click the shortcut and the program runs. On the W7 computer doing the exact same thing, when they click on the shortcut they get the message "This program has stoppped working". Now I can run this program just fine outside of GP. For now I have given her a shortcut on her desktop. Has anyone else experienced this and is there a way to correct this errant behavior? There appears to be something wrong with calling an executable with a GP shortcut.

RE: Dynamics GP 2010 External Program Shortcut

I have ascertained that W7 64 bit is the issue. I have now placed the program on other W7 64 bit computers and it crashes on all of them when called as a shortcut within GP. Running the program from outside of GP it works just fine, It is only on W7 64 bit computers that exhibit this problem.
