You might try running the EXE from inside VFP (DO MyApp.EXE in the command window). You can add an ASSERT or SET STEP ON call at the appropriate point and follow the code with the debugger.

I'm assuming that the form runs OK before you compile it?

>I am using IF FILE to check for a file and it sees it then issuing command DELETE FILE and it does not delete the file in the compiled program. From the command window using cut and paste the commands work fine. Has anyone seen this problem?
