This would return .t. if file found and accessible otherwise an error code indicating why cannot be opened (ie: exists but not accessible).

The best part about this episode was that I had included the app.ini file in the project but forgot to exclude it. That drove me nuts for awhile as the executable would "find" the file every time it ran but when I looked with explorer it was not there...

Thanks for the help
