Not a Valid Win32 application

Hello,

I Recently started at a new company and was assigned my own desk. There is
a program that the company needs me to be able to run called VFR Construction
Forms. But after installing the program, and then running it, I keep getting
a "C:\Program Files\VFR\VFR Construction Forms\Construction.exe is not a
valid Win32 application". I'm trying to understate what causes this error in
general, and how I can correct the problem. The system was on SP 2, but I
upgraded it to SP3 and install any new updates. Any information is greatly
appreciated. My email is varxtis@gmail.com

Contact your System Administrator.

Let's go on the idea that I can't because they aren't available. The company
is a roofing company, and the administration office that I work in is
comprised of only about 9 people. The computer Admin is not actually on site,
and it seems like the majority of the people here are encouraged to try and
solve their own problems.

First off, you should not publish your real email address as you may get
spammed.

As to the message;

That message can occur if the file is corrupt
or if the program just cannot run on your version of Windows.

Check first to see if the program and your version of Windows
is *identical* to that of your co-workers.

If so, try uninstalling
then reinstalling from a different media source.


If that does not work...probably tell your boss...
since he or she will not be likely to run the application either...
I doubt if they can blame you for any wrong doing.

1. The file may be corrupt.

2. The program may be incompatible with SP3, check the manufacturer
regarding any updates/upgrades to the program you're trying to use.
