I've developed an application and when I install it I've found that the directory location is somehow hard coded into the data environment in the form.

Example, development directory is k:\launcher\source and the database property of the data environment of the form is k:\launcher\source\accounts.dbf. This can not be changed (in italics). I want my app to look for the database in the same directory that the program resides, not "k:\launcher\source\". So if I install it in c:\program files\launcher\, it should not still be looking on the K drive for data.

Is there an easy way to avoid this? What's going on?

Thanks!
