FoxPro doesn't store path to the free table with view definition. In order to open such view the free base table has to be on the FoxPro path. You can use SET PATH command to add directory with that table to the VFP search path.

How can i make my view look for the right table in the right directory? When table.dbf was located in the default directory for my program there was no problem.
