>I'm so confused. I know, that's normal for me. We want to install out app on a PC (server) and use data local to that PC. Then, install our app on another PC (workstation) and map a drive to the server and use the data dir on it. When we do this, everything is OK except when we do anything that requires gettinf a new ID from the ID table. The app still want's to look at it's local data (which doesn't exist). We are using the metadbc table for our database paths, but can't seem to get it to work. HELP!

If you're goApp.lUseDBCMgrMetaData is .T., just change the Local/Remote paths in your MetaDBC (use UNC paths if possible). That's what we do, and it works like a charm for all 8 production/test databases. No muss, no fuss... it might even make your whites brighter!

Hope that does the trick,
