Arlei:

You could determine location at runtime by checking to see if you are running a production EXE or you are running from inside the VFP IDE

If Version(2) > 0
   * development
Else
   * production
Endif

Or you could similarly define a method in your application object that determines what constitutes development, by any combination you want, using maybe Version(2) plus looking to see if you are running from your workstation - Sys(0) or a certain system memvar is set or whatever

If oApp.InDevelopment()
   * development
Endif

Then you can set your environment accordingly.

In my development system I go one step earlier and have the program setup routine see that it is running in the development workstation and present a MessageBox() asking if I want to run with Development or Production data. Users do not see this as they are not running in my PC and from the VFP IDE.
