I create a folder on my system for each project I work on. All the project, forms, reports, tables, databases, etc are in the one folder. As I work with the project manager, I add/modify, etc. The problem I am running into.....

As I am writing and debugging each form, if I need to call a file, report or another form, I have to include foldername\formname (or reportname, or tablename) in each call while working from the PM. When I "build" the exe, these foldername additions, cause the EXE not to work (I think because the exe is already in that folder). What am I missing here? Is there a stored item somewhere in the individual project to tell the PM where I am working in? Is this something that would be global for ALL apps I am working on or is this project specific?

Thanks
