>It claims that my project is open by someone else (my project is on my local drive and I do not have it open). I am evidently doing something wrong.

Hmmm. It traps for a "File access denied" error when it tries to open your project. If oyu are sure that you don't have the project open in another instance of VFP or open as a table, I will look at the source code tomorrow and see if there are any holes that could give this message falsely.
