>I'd suspect that at some point you had your .DBC and its tables in separate folders (and/or drives). IIRC each table stores a relative path to its .DBC in its header somewhere. If worst comes to worst, I seem to remember you can use low-level file functions to strip out these values. You might search earlier threads here and/or search the Files section in case someone's uploaded a utility.


Thanks Al

I have a function that sort of works, but its not convenient to keep running it because of the distributed nature of some of my apps.

Also this function seems to have problems if I am using long UNC qualified paths. eg \\myservername\mydir\mysubdir and claims it cannot locate the tables.

The ideal soulution for me is a piece of code thats checks the the links between the DBC and any tables in the same dir with it.

I am sure I saw someone talking about code that solved this problem but I have not been able to find it.
