Tried that, same error

I've found VFP to be somewhat hinky on whether using "name expressions" 
actually works in some situations.

When all else fails:

>cDefdir="P:\DOLPHIN FOLDER"    && with a space

set default to "&lcDefdir."

or

set default to (&lcDefdir.)

should work. Note the period to terminate macro expansion.
