Richard (and everyone else)

two things.

1. I rewrote the code without the vfptoolkit, that did not solve the problem, still have the same thing, but the toolkit is now one less layer.

2. (A) It still runs perfect on my development machine, with the datbase located another machine.
(B) I had be attempting to run the application with it stored on a file server and still receive the same error.
(C) When I copied the application directory to the individual workstation, it ran fine.

That doesn't make too much since to me, I changed the rights on the directory where it's stored to everyone full, and the same error.

    Public Shared Function GetDataView(ByVal tcSQLCMD As String) As DataView
        Dim cnn As New SqlClient.SqlConnection
        Dim cmd As New SqlClient.SqlCommand
        Dim da As New SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter
        Dim ds As New DataSet

        cnn.ConnectionString = AppGlobals.AppConnString
        Try
            cnn.Open()
        Catch ex As SqlClient.SqlException
            MsgBox("Can't Open" & vbCr & ex.Message, MsgBoxStyle.Critical, "Title")
        End Try
        cmd = cnn.CreateCommand
        cmd.CommandText = tcSQLCMD
        da.SelectCommand = cmd
        da.Fill(ds)
        Dim dv As New DataView(ds.Tables(0))
        cnn.Close()
        Return (dv)
    End Function
