>>I have subclassed the vfp timer that looks every minute in a directory for 10 files showing up, after that the program has to run a batch program. I have tried this program last friday and usually these files show up saturday. When coming to the office monday I noticed that the program stucked with an error: invalid path on the following syntax:
>>
>>

>>PROCEDURE TIMER()
>>
>>set default to (this.cDownloadDirectory)
>>
>>....
>>
>>ENDPROC
>>
