Hi Hemant,

From the VFP Help file
When you start Visual FoxPro you can use a default configuration file in the following locations (in order):

The current working directory.
The directory where Visual FoxPro is installed.
The directories listed in the DOS path.


I would suggest storing the config.fpw in the startup directory and setting the temp and sort directory locations to something like C:\Temp.

I respectfully disagree with Mazahir on compiling the config.fpw into the executable because if you decide to change any settings in the config.fpw you'll need to recompile. Leave it as a stand-alone file and any modifications will take effect upon next start-up.

Regards,

Liam


>Thank you Liam, I have read the documentation of Config.fpw. But I don't know whether it will help me..! Becasue I am using an .exe file of VFP. I am my startup directory is same as data directory where tables are kept with indexes. Every thing is same. I can set local directory as temporory work space directory. But where to keep this config.fpw? Should I put config.fpw in start up directory. or Should I put config.fpw on each PC connected to the application(.exe) machine?
