Hi Charlie.

>I have a problem with the FFC _movers which may just be my ignornace of Windows 7 to which I have recently changed to (a different machine with fresh Enterprise version)

>When I tried to build my project I started to get "_movers is not an object file" messages. Looking at the file in the browser showed that the memo fields were all empty even though they were displayed as "Memo".

You're likely running into file virtualization. Because everything in C:\Program Files is read-only, any attempts to modify files (such as those in FFC) cause them to be written to a virtualization folder. You're likely thinking, "but I didn't modify the files". However, even MODIFY CLASS or building the project with "recompile all files" turned on causes an attempt to write to the files.

The solution is to move the FFC files you want to use to another folder, such as your source code folder, and reference them in the project from there, not from the FFC folder.
