>>I have an app that includes a reporting module; this runs "external" queries and reports - that is, they are not compiled into my app. So for example my reporting module might call c:\localQueries\query1.prg to generate a cursor and then c:\localReports\report1.frx to report on the data. If my compiled app also includes a prg called "query1", at run time this gets called in preference to the external query - despite me calling the external prg with a fully qualified path name. Is there some way to avoid this - other than making sure the external queries are all named differently to any prgs compiled into the app.

Not going to help. It changes search order not use order.
