I’ve been playing around with my system and have found the following: I log on a development account If I do a SET-FILE CHURCH MD (just as a test), it works If I do a SET-FILE TPH-III MD , I get : Invalid Q pointer specification , Account = 'TPH-III' , file = 'MD'
I have checked my windows control panel>users> properties for both accounts and they are identical (except for the account names of course) I have checked my system file and have identical entries for CHURCH and TPH-III I remember modifying and registry entry to allow me to log on to accounts with a null password. I must have done it for both CHURCH AND TPH-III because I can logon to them with having to enter a password.

Try an F pointer and see if that helps: MD filename 001 F description (description is optional) 002 Full data file path 003 Full dict file path (with ]D on the end) That will treat the file as local in any account in which it exists. Of course, as has already been said, you have to have permissions to the file. Windows 7 is a bear about permissions.

I deleted the entries “TPH-CONTROL” AND TPH-CONTROL]D FROM MY MAIN ACCOUNT. I just tried to to set up a Q POINTER , but it won’t let me. Tells me I have an Invalid q pointer.

However, if I break into the program (ctl-c) I see the following error message on my screen: Unable to open file TPH-CONTROL This is a file in the same account as the program I am trying to run. In my current account if have in my MD: 001 Q 002 TPH-III 003 TPH-CONTROL 004 005 006 007 008 009 L 010 10 If I log onto the secondary account, the program runs fine. What am I missing ?
