My problem is similar but not as bad. For several forms in the project (VFP 6 only), when I try to open them I get the message 'File D:\VCARS does not exist'. If I hit OK the form opens and appears to be alright. D:\VCARS is my working directory for the project. I really have no ideal what causes this and it is a little worrisome. At one point, the form would open without this message. The same message appears if I modify the form by typing in the command window. Any help on this?
