James,

I don't know what's going on inside your DLL, so just a suggestion: You could issue a

DIR (lcPath+"lotA.dbf") TO FILE c:\test.txt

or

DIR (lcPath+"*.*") TO FILE c:\test.txt

in place of the other code that fails and see what gets into the log file and if your DBF is listed there.

HTH,
Armin

I've been really banging my head against the wall on this one. The process is running remotely on the other machine (in COM+), so the path should be correct. Any help would be appreciated.
