>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 I do the "replace all objects" thing I get sometimes nasty compile errors ("FileName IS NOT AN OBJECT" f.i. and the compile crashes).

But there is even a better and safer way:
Open the project,
Save as Other Name
Save again as Old name.

This will clear the object fields and without creating problems in the rest of the project fields.
