It could possibly be a .h file that's #included somewhere and not found when compiling.
The steps with the debugger:
- just open the debugger, no breakpoints
- build exe blabla from blabla recompile
When it breaks, look at the debugger's output window... if you have VFP9. I'm not sure the names of components are echoed there in VFP8.
Alternately, build it from the project manager, and make sure you check the "Display Errors" checkbox. That should create blabla.err text file with the location of the file where the error happened. Unfortunately, if it's a vcx, it won't say which class... but then the path error in there is most likely to come from a .h file, or a .picture... can't remember what else could it be.
