>Are you having a problem with forms that have cursors in the dataenironment? In other words setting the path does not work in that case you must modify the dataenvironment property for each cursor. If this is the case for you I can send you the code to do this on the fly when you open the form.

I am setting the property in an object which will be dropped onto a form. The property must be set in the object and not the form as the object may be used in multiple forms and I dont want the burden of having to remember to open the table for the object to work on each one of those forms.
