Have you looked at the project .err file? Most of the time, this will identify the problem files.

Also, when you copy from a CD to your hd, the files could be made read only.




>Running VFP 6, SP5 and Win98. I have always worked on the same three stable and old VFP applications. Recently one of these applications was copied to serve as a base for a new application. This new application has been cut, torn, copied, moved, etc. Well .... the project manager of this new application is giving me fits. Everytime it is opened it gives a 'file access is denied', then 'memo field is missing', then something about network status and rights. After trying five or six times it always opens, but this is a pain. I go through the same routine whenever I try to rebuild the project or open certain files within the project it gives me 'file access is denied'. I run a little bat file to change all file attributes to not read-only (copy a lot from a CD to and from work), have checked the files in each subfolder manually and nothing is read-only, and have deleted the foxuser. I always get it opened and get it recompiled, but it takes 6 or seven tries and closing and reopening VFP.
