The problem is that VFP includes the original path in the Data Environment, so everybody goes to C:\DATADIR, so a solution might be editing the SCX files by hand and removing these paths. Another solution could be working on a mapped drive (say, Q:); you should SUBST Q: on your machine, and every other user should map Q: to your PC.

HTH!
