>Hi. VFP6. I am writing a multi-user app. I don't want to use the data environment in my forms because the location of the data will change once I "go live". In which method would I code the data environment for my forms? Also, what functionality will I lose (other than drag-and-drop in my form design)?
>Is there another solution? I plan to store my data path in a dbf and use '&path."\filename'" to load my data.
You can open your data tables in the Load event. I would reccommend that you use name subsitution not macro evaluation:
USE (path+"\filename")
Name substitution is a little faster than macros and you won't have problems if your paths contain embedded spaces.
