Alex,
Are you saying that it's looking in the wrong database when it tries to instantiate the Punch_BO?
If so, check the cDefaultDatabaseName property of Employee_BO's DataEnvironment. (Also, make sure to check the cDatabaseName property of the cursor object(s) it contains) Do they correspond to what's in Punch_BO's DE? If not, you'll want to re-create Employee_BO's DE.
