You can use the Data Environment. You need to set the Data Environment's
Table Location in the BeforeOpenTables method of the DE. Check

>I'm having no trouble working in the project manager and using the data environment to progam local, stand alone applications. However, I need to be able to have the end user specify what drive and directory the (shared) data will be on at run time. Now, I'm new to FoxPro, but it seems to me that the location of the tables is hard-linked to the project. Can I use the data environment with this scenario, or must I load the tables manually? What am I missing here??
