Steve,

It sounds like you're confusing SET PATH and SET DEFAULT (or CD). SET PATH works just like the path in DOS. It tells VFP where to look for files but it doesn't change your current directory. You can use ?SET('PATH') to return the current path. Use SET DEFAULT or CD to change the current directory. That change will be reflected by CURDIR().
