>Is there a way to, at the beginning of a form, to add the data files to the data environment programmatically, or set a path for the DE to use before opening files? The problem I am having is that locally, or over the LAN, an app works just fine, and opens the files it needs using path strings, which change quite regularly, for example:

>thislanfile=&mlanpath+'abc.dbf'
>USE "&thislanfile" IN 0

>That works great, but when a user RDP's in, it doesn't work. Using messagebox, I can see that the machine/folder/dbf is correct, but I get error 1 in the 'use' line. Any help will be much apperciated!

Don't use macro when it's absolutely unnecessary. Use name expression instead.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
