>I have had similar experiences. Project Manager keeps 'full path' pointers to many objects, and will relocate most of these when you open the project and reply 'YES' to the question "Project has been moved, make xxx... the new home directory?" However, I have found that often pointers to graphics ( x.bmp ) files are improperly updated -- this appears to be a 'known bug', at least that is the reponse I got about a month ago on the UT. I am running VFP 5.0a with service pack 3 applied, and this is the only remaining aread where I don't see the project manager handling the pointers properly.
I was refering to the application wizard. It turns out that when the application wizard asks you for the project directory, it puts "CD 'path\path\etc'" in the main.prg, just before SET PATH xxx, xxx is issued.
This is not good. This line should be removed so that SET PATH only provides a pointer to directories contained inside SYS(2003). If I develop in c:\Development\app\ I don't want CD c:\Development\app\ issued at startup. Also, on a side note, .bmp files always need to be in the startup dir, and tools from wizstyle.scx have a path hard coded in the properties of the class for wiz.bmps. You're miles ahead by skipping anything from wizards that contains a picture.
