Greetings all,

One command that is etched in my xBase memory from dBase days is SET DIRECTORY. If I read correctly, that is not implemented in VFP. The command there (and in dBase/DOS) is SET DEFAULT. I used to use SET DEFAULT for selecting the drive, and SET DIRECTORY for moving around the directory tree.

SET DIRECTORY is not listed in VFP7 help, and does not trigger an error when entered in the command window, or used in a .PRG. Is this an undocumented or legacy command that actually is doing something good or bad? Should be avoided?

TIA,
