The path to foxuser.dbf when RESOURCE=OFF in the config.fpw is either folder EXE is started from or the value of 'Start In' when EXE starts from a shortcut or other program, id it's specified. Check how EXE is started and make sure that Start In parameter/setting is properly configured.

>We have a couple of procedures left over from FoxPro 2.6 that still work for us, but now that we have released it to clients we are getting sporadic errors. The error is error writing to foxuser.fpt. We didn't have this issue in VFP 6 just now that we have upgraded to VFP 8 SP1. It's always on a READ statement and in our error logging program we logged that RESOURCE is set to OFF but it is set to c:\windows\system32\foxuser.dbf, which is the default when you have RESOURCE=OFF in the config.fpw. The users don't have access to their system32 folder because the IT guy doesn't want them to, but it shouldn't matter since RESOURCE is OFF. Anyone seen this or know of a work around currently we catch it in our error logging program and just ignore it. I have a hunch it's when they sit on a read statement for awhile but don't know for sure since I can't recreate it back here.
