Hi, Basically, VFP with Due with the Current Working Directory.
i.e. You can assign to what directory as you wish by:
SET DEFAULT TO H:\happyDir
Remember if You use a CommonDialog to open a file out of the orginal one...
You need to use:
CD H:\happyDir
to restore to original Directory!
Or even simple add this 'CD' command at the beginning of program!
It is more comprehensive if you set all your favour setting at the beginning
of program and you nearly don't change them unless special reasons.
Then, you can adjust them well.
For example, you can:
SET DELETE ON
SET ANSI ON
SET EXACT OFF
CD H:\happyDir
....
* Then, really start you Form
Do Form HappyNow With "Have a Nice Day!"
.....
