VFP 8

I got a form with 3 remote views on the data enviroment.
it runs fine but when i compile the app to an EXE the forms load fine you can see the data on the grig but just for a brif second then the grid goes blank an error is displaied "Alias 'companies' is not found".

I tried seting the close tables property to .f. on the data enviroment with no efect.


any ideas?

thanks.
