I use an INI file found in the same directory as my config.fpw (which also is the same directory as the exe). The ini file is read before hand to tell the application where the data is located. The application has a data object that reads the ini file and then stores the paths as part of the data object. So when the user installs the app the installation program updates the ini file. If the user moves the data then the ini file is updated also. This is one approach I am sure there are many.

To find the ini file I use:
pcIniFile = JUSTPATH(SYS(2019)) + '\APPLIC.INI'


Another could involve the use of writting to the registry the data locations and having you app update the registry when data is moved around.
