Mike, I just tested this on my W2k machine with the default in vfp set to the L: drive and the path set to the t: drive and when I tried to open a table that was located in the path, it worked fine. So it cannot be a bug. I'm using VFP7 SP1 too.
My code that worked:
SET DEFAULT TO L:\profiler\data
SET PATH TO T:
USE \temp\test
