Hello Phil

I have done just that. you must lookout for hard coding of paths

example
old path c:\project
new path d:\system

copy files
open project (should be prompted for new home directory hit yes to change it)
recompile all files
open the file finder (F3) in windows
set path (d:\system)
change "containing text" to "c:\project"

take note what files popup
go into vfp and modify the files, if you can't figure out where the file is storing the data just let me know the specs (file type ect....)


Hope this helps you out Phil
