Thanks for your replies on this. Am I correct in saying that 4D v15 still doesn't allow the setting of a path relative to the user's home folder? ie "~/folder/application.4dd"
If that's the case, I'm still no further forward :-( My plan is for each user to have their own copy of the data file stored in a fixed location within their home folder. The reason for this is that it's helpful in our network to use fast user switching, but that won't work if the 4D data file is already open for a different user on the same computer. But if each user has their own copy of the data file, then this would work (remembering that this data file is only used for getting logged in to the MySQL database and a few temporary tables for reports). I don't want the user to have to go searching for the data file every time I upgrade the application… Any further assistance gratefully received.
