>As was mentioned elsewhere on this thread, the problem is that the tmp files were sent to a drive that doesn't exist on the target PC. First, in you're CONFIG.FPW file add a line to indicate a directory for the tmp files on your local drive (such as: TMPFILES=C:\FOXPROW\). Just to be sure that all references are removed, I would open the project as a table and issue: REPLACE ALL OBJECT WITH "". Close the table, open the project normally, and re-compile. That should fix it.

Hi George,
If he develops on a D: drive and a client has a CD Rom there without a CD in place the client will fail with an "I/O error". Fox (at Toledo) develop some of Foxpro on a D: drive so some of their own apps fail this way too (eg GenPD.app)
