>Now that I moved a large table to another network computer I cannot set another path for it without interferring with the other path. So the only way I can reach the drive is to hard code it.
You should not be dependent of changing your code whenever your tables move. You may want to use a INI file or a TABLE.DBF which hold the path of all your free tables. Then, you'll be able to use your free tables like USE gcData+'CLIENT', etc.
