I just noticed that my cursor objects are trying to reopen VFP database when it is already open.

After some short tracing... :))) I have found the following:

Class Library: CDataEnv.vcx
Class: CCursor, Method: OpenTable
Class: CDataEnvironment, Method: Init

Both places above have the following code

... DBUSED(JUSTFNAME(DatabaseName)) ...

where DatabaseName is a "cursor.database" property and has a short path to the DBC.

The problem is with JUSTFNAME(), which always returns the name.extension for the DBC file. The DBUSED() always returns .F. in this case, and database opens again.

I recommend to use the JUSTSTEM() function instead of JUSTFNAME() to produce the expected results.
