>This seems silly to me. How often is the development path the same as the run-time path? As long as it doesn't complain that the hard-coded directory doesn't exist, I should be ok.
The problem comes when your project is hard-coded internally as C:\MyApp and you try to run it on the network on F:\NetApp. The EXE which you placed on F:\NetApp will STILL look at C:\MyApp first.

I suggested that keyword to search, because several of the discussions were on handling just the type of scenario you're looking for - how to handle opening and closing tables.
