Hi Bill, That is strange. It has happened to me before. Have you restarted the system. Usually that does the trick for me. And wait about 4 minutes after restarting the system before you try to set the default drive in foxpro. The drives needs a little time to map after windows 7 starts up again.

Pew Sent: Saturday, April 06, 2013 9:28 AM To: [email protected] Subject: VFP9 Mapped Drive Problem Hi all! I'm trying to run a VFP9 app on a small peer network of Win7 (64bit) machines. As a test I installed VFP on one of the machines and some tables on another. I shared the drive with the tables and mapped it to the letter T: on the VFP machine. I can see the drive (T:) and its contents from Windows explorer but when I issue "Use t:\tst.dbf" in the command window I get "File 'T:\tst.dbf does not exist'". If I issue 'SET DEFAULT TO T:\" I get "Invalid path or file name". Has anyone got any idea why this is happening and what I need to do to fix it?
