>When does the file does not exist error occur? I have a program, that tries to open a table when the user executes the program. The program gave the error "c:\Mytable.dbf' does not exist. MyTable.dbf was there on the C drive and Set("Default") and Set("Path") RETURNED "C:\". But the C Drive had a very old version of the table with a totally different structure.

Maybe think in the direction of an implied Index file which can't be found;
The old table could have a structural Index (look with Modify Structure) while the CDX has gone, or the USE MyTable Index MyIndex may try to find the Index on C: where it does not exist.
Lastly I know of curiosities on locating the Index files when the DBF is not found in the current dir but somewhere down the line of a path.
HTH,
