Juergen, That sounds entirely reasonable, only I haven't seen the DE as record # 6. Maybe it's a DE cursor at record 6 with a bad path.
*Still* I would totally open up the Login form as a DBF NOUPDATE and take a look. I'd be entirely happy to be wrong. Hey Kurt - to spell it out for you...I never wrote to look at the DBC. Open the form as a table. USE <hard coded path to logon2 form>/Logon2.SCX SHARED NOUPDATE GOTO 6 The DE is in the Properties memo field if used. Check the ClassLoc memo field or the Methods memo field or even the Reserved8 memo. If you see *any* relative pathing, take note of it. I assume you'll make a backup....Now open the SCX as a table but leave off the NOUPDATE clause. Hard code the direct path(s). Close the table, recompile the form. Can you open/run the form? If so, great! If not, check the changes. Assuming you can get it working, now you want to change the hard coded path(s) to a correct relative path(s), if relevant. Actually, one of your relative paths in your example looked funny to me. How is it done? Basically rinse and repeat. One step at a time. If none of this works, still open the form as a table and go to record 6 NOUPDATE. Set the memo field to a monospaced font. Go into all the memo fields, click in the memo field, then select Ctrl + A. Do you see a hidden character that you don't see in other records? It's conceivable there's a rogue character in one of the memo fields. Otherwise, just send it to me, we'll talk and I'll figure it out. Bill Anderson On Sat, Mar 22, 2025 at 9:33 AM <[email protected]> wrote: > You're wrong (sorry).
