Title:
Problem moving from mapped drives to UNC
I am attempting to run my VFP application (as an EXE file) from a remote site using universal naming convention instead of a mapped drive. (Note the application works perfectly with a mapped drive).
I make no references to paths in the program except that I open all my table and databases using a relative path name. Example:
use database\atable.dbf shared in 0
My CONFIG.FPW file has no path names hard coded for table access.
I get the following error when running the EXE:
Unable to access \:\\FS_RENAL2\USER1\APPS\DB\MAIN\DATABASE\PATDB.DBC
This looks fine except for the "\:" at the start. How did that get there? Should that be there? What is causing it?
I am puzzled..
