>1&2 are what I planned already. 3 doesn't work. I don't think I can set in config where to put the temp files. How's VFP supposed to know what's a temp file? I'm trying to avoid config, anyway. I want to set everything up in the setup program.

3 should work. Are all of your tables in the same directory as your .DBC? If so, you might want to remove the paths from the links to the table in the .DBC.

In the 'property' field of the .DBC there is a reference to the table. Make sure it doesn't have a path in it, just the name of the .dbf. See, if you move the .DBC and there is a path there, then the .DBC will open the tables in the path, and not where you moved it too.

AH... as far as Temp files, you are talking about work files that you create programatically. I thought you ment temp files that VFP created in the background.

Well... all you have to do when you create a temp file is specify the path. Do you have a function that create temp file names? If so, just modify it a bit to return the path which is on c where you want to create the file.
