Jim,

>I must have traversed up and down the calling stack for two days before I opened my preferences and noticed that the path to my dbc was '\prod\compile\newkirk\data\newkirk.dbc' instead of 'g:\prod\compile\newkirk\data\newkirk.dbc'. I don't know how the cursors managed to load correctly, but the calling stack kept returning .f. for This.oDataenvironment. Because the errormsg was commented out, I never saw the error. Perhaps you could put the error back in so that others won't have to go through this?>

Did my comment that "this is probably a case of the application not being able to find the data" come back and haunt you <bg>?

The data environment should not display messages to the user since it resides in tier 2.

Regards,
