got a strange error. I'm running VFP 7.0/SP1

When I open a form from my app (EXE) I get the error "Error instantiating cursor object. Cannot find f:\winapps\arwin\customer.dbf" (the directory listed is the current directory my program is running from, the table is elsewhere)

When I edit the DE on the form the correct location of the table is there (f:\winapps\ar\customer.dbf) but somehow between developing and compiling it, it's loosing the static location of the table customer.dbf. This table is not part of a database, just a standalone table.

I've ran into this before but not in this situation. It would be nice if FoxPro had a property where you could tell it if the table location is static or relative.

Any ideas how to get around this? Thanks!
