I have a VFP where the exe is run from local and the database and tables reside on my NTServer(4.0). Any suggestions for me? Is there a way to monitor the network to see when the files are being dropped from the users workstations? I'm stumped and my network people are not very helpful.

I am having the same issue. The only lead I have so far is that FP stores the paths of project files into the .exe or .app file. If the drive letter of the path does not exist on the target computer, you can get an 1104 error. My problem however is sporadic and it seems to me that this would occur every time it hits the offending path. Do you do any development on drives other than your C drive? I do all of mine on my D drive, so this explanation is plausible for me, but I'm still looking into it. Do you get 1104 sporadically, or everytime? I suspected that the problem was with the network too, but then I realized all the error information was saved to my errlog.dbf file on the file server. It seems that if the network went down, it could not have logged the error over the network. Someone wrote a program to fix this problem in version 2.6. It is not clear to me whether this works in VFP3 or 5. The program is called FIXAPP.PRG written by Cy Welch. It was posted to the newsgroup microsoft.public.fox.programmer.exchange with the subject Re:File read Error ---Hope this helps you out. Please let me know if you find something.
