I need to localize one of my existing tables to each local machine. To do this, I thought I can just use a copy of the table with the .exe on each local machine and delete the copy that exists on the server with the other tables. I moved the table files (dbf, cdx, fpt, tbk) using the Windows Explorer. However, when I tried to run the app I got this error: "the table file has moved, please validate database".

I tried another approach by removing the table from the project manager then moving the files. This time, when I tried to start the program, I got this error "Error instantiating cursor object. Cannot find table file in .dbc file". If I click on "Locate" and select the file, it will work, but if another form tries to access the table, then the same error occurs again.

How can I fix this?
