I have an application that has worked for years. Now I need to place the data files in a folder other than "data". I can access the read/write tables placed in the new folder location, "testdata", but the tables included in the EXE display the following error when I USE them:

"The database for table .. could not be opened. Would you like to try to locate the owning database?" It is trying to find the dbc in the "data" folder, but the folder doesn't exist.

The tables and dbc are in a folder named "data" in the development environment. I used "testdata" for the folder name in the runtime environment and added that folder to the path.

The client needs to have the application run from a local drive and have the data located on a server. Any ideas?

Thanks
