>>>I haven't to open the table, these are in the DE, the library's form is the base from which the developers create their forms, I'm developing a framework and each VFP project is based on this framework; so I don't known which tables are used, and I don't want to say to each developer to customize the Form.DataEnviroment.BeforeOpenTables() event to change the database property, I would to do this in library...

Renato,
No problem with English but I still couldn't get how exactly tables are opened. Your form class doesn't have a DE OK. A form class cannot have a DE but a DE could be added (referenced). If users are using form designer (and their form template is set to your form class) they would have DE automatically. I think you do it this way. Or there should be somewhere where you open tables (load ? a custom dataenvironment class ?). It doesn't matter much though. All you need is to show correct DBC, either for tables in DE or opened elsewhere.
