Hi Sergey

That fixed it. I put the file in my working directory. I quess vfp
looks in its home dir unless you point it to your home dir. I quess
when you run your exe it considers home the dir the exe is running
from and I quess when you are running from the IDE it considers home
where vfp8 is at. So this is where the -c comes into play. Thanks to
everyone who chipped in.
