Wayne, thanks for the help. I followed your suggestion but still not able to open forms from the main menu. I then changed the properties of the Desktop Shortcut to launch the program from the server instead of the workstation. Everything then worked fine. I still don't understand why the program couldn't find the data on the server when run locally.
Thanks again for the help.
Ken

>>I'm a newbie and have been struggling with a problem for several weeks. I'm trying to set up a multiuser app with the data files on a server and the app on workstations. In the config.fpw I Set Path to \\server\c\foxdata. When the app is run on a workstation, it can't find the data. It runs fine on the server.
>>Can someone tell me exactly what I need to do or things I need to check. This seems like a rediculously simple problem but I've been unable to solve.
>>Thanks in advance.

If there is only one record in the table, that one is opened.
