>In 2.x I would just set path to the directory that contained the data even if it was in a shared drive in another computer. Do you do anything different in VFP? I have seen local views and remote views and I know that I don't understand all that I don't know about them yet!

Local and remote views are contained in a database container [DBC]. You can have both in the same database as well as local [VFP] tables. I keep almost all my VFP tables [free and those linked to the DBC] in the same directory as the DBC. I have at least 1 or 2 user tables located in the [local] installation directory. These tables are not part of the DBC [i.e., free tables].
Remote views are created via an ODBC connection created by the ODBC Administrator or programmatically with VFP code and API.
