Keith,

I think you are running in a new context so 4D can't reference the
previous one (the .4DB does not relate to the .4DC).

I'd write a routine in the interpreted database that records the
position in JSON format in the resources folder then when you build
the application (which will include resources from the source version)
you can then read the "default" positions.


Regards,

Wayne
