Afier,

Bob H. had an EXCELLENT point about forms no longer recognizing the DBC if it is renamed. However, if you rename the DBC files through Explorer then open each table exclusively it will ask if you wish to create a back-link. This should accomplish what you are asking.

>We are using Visual FoxPro 5.0 and we have build a framework. In that framework we have used a database container named 'framewrk.dbc' with a couple of tables.. Now we would like to make an application from that framework. We want to rename the dbc but that can not be done. All the tables can't find the dbc and won't open if we change the name. Is it possible to change the dbc-name without losing all the tables in it? Thank you for your time.
