Depending on what version of SDT and VFP, SDT may not be able to find the AddObject.PRG if you are not using VFP 6. VFP 6 has the AddObject() function so the SDT AddObject.prg is no longer needed. Also, SDT changed the directory structure vith version 5.1 I think. The path became C:\Stonefield\SDT, then under that is the Source folder which needs to be in the VFP search path.
