Thanks all for the responses:

Well it looks like the app is somehow finding the file d:\appsvfp_6x\doc9000\documents\released\sop\sop-001_90.doc, which is on the computer JKT01. I don't know how it is finding it. I checked the vfp path and the dos path and the above directory is not in it. I guess I should use Glenn's suggestion concerning the sys() command.

<i>="\\jkt02\apps_vfp\documents\released\sop\sop-001_90.doc" </i> Doesn't exist!
thisform.cDocFileName="\\jkt02\apps_vfp\documents\released\sop\sop-001_90.doc"
file("\\jkt02\apps_vfp\documents\released\sop\sop-001_90.doc") = .t.
file(thisform.cDocFileName)=.t.
