Joseph,

Just to make sure we're on the same page, are you saying:

1. you have, by default, set up your environments to use local data, and then switched the remote view DEs?

2. on your pc, leaving the default as "Use Local Data" causes no problem?

3. on other machines, no matter what setting you use, something crashes. Both "Use Local Data" and "Use Default" crashes when using the first remote view, while "Use Remote" crashes when accessing the first framework local view?

Also, are these other machines development ones or do they merely run compiled versions of your app?

(In the meantime, check all machines to be sure that the application registry settings -- and MetaDBC -- match what's on your pc)

>Thanks for you help, Jason. I should have mentioned that I did, in fact, try this, but now my form isn't finding the view at all (it displays "Invalid ControlSource" messages and then crashes, saying "v_xxx" is not found). If I set it back to 0 - Use Default Value it works on my machine, but not on the others.
