I use a different foxuser.dbf for each app and each version of VFP on my system. Do you specify a resource file in your config.fpw that is called when you run your app? We use the following command line when we run our vfp apps in the shortcut to specify a config.fpw which then points to a specific foxuser.dbf:

K:\PROFILER\PROGS\pro32.exe -cc:\foxpro\vfp8\config.fpw

the c:\foxpro\vfp\config.fpw file contains:

SCREEN=OFF
BELL=OFF
DEVELOPMENT=OFF
EMS=ON
ESCAPE=OFF
EXCLUSIVE=OFF
CENTURY=ON
MVCOUNT=1400
MEMLIMIT=80,1024,1024
EDITWORK=C:\FOXPRO\TMP\
PROGWORK=C:\FOXPRO\TMP\
SORTWORK=C:\FOXPRO\TMP\
RESOURCE=C:\FOXPRO\VFP8\FOXUSER.DBF
TMPFILES=C:\FOXPRO\TMP\
_FOXDOC=""
_FOXGRAPH=""
CODEPAGE=AUTO
CPDIALOG=OFF
