Hi all,

I'm facing a problem and maybe you can help me.

When developing, I use the following folder: L:\DEVELOPMENT\SALES.
If you take a look at my DataEnvironment's Database property you will see the value L:\DEVELOPMENT\SALES\SALES.DBF

The users needs to run this program from the L:\PRODUCTION\SALES folder, so I copy the .exe file to that folder, but the application is working with the .DBF files from the development folder (L:\DEVELOPMENT\SALES).

There is a way to tell VFP to open the .DBF files from the L:\PRODUCTION\SALES folder? Something like "Hey, try to open the .DBFs at home directory first, if not possible then look around" :)

I'm using VFP 8.0

Regards,
Next
