Title:
Hard Coded DataBase???
Hello All,
I've just tried using the data environment of the form to open the tables needed for the form. In my main program, I issue the open database command and have set the default in the samo program.
I created the exe file and moved it out to the netowrk for testing. Sure enough I get the message of unable to locate the tables, LOcate, Ignore, Cancel and Ignore all(I think that was the last alternative!).
I reopen the form, open the data environment, select properties of one of the tables and sure enough, there, in the property called database I find the hard code of the path of the table with all the colons and backslashes of DOS.
I cleaned out the data environment and in the load returned ti the fox2x standard of IF NOT USED etc and SET RELA TO for all the tables.
Is this normal behavior in the data environment?? If so, is there a workaround for this??
I'm using VFP5
Thanks
Sandy
