In VFP, DBF may not open if the path contains blank space. As for example if the DBF is in c:\vfp 9\dbf directory, it may not open. It will open if the DBF is in c:\vfp9\dbf directory.
Check the path. Make sure that path does not have blank space. I have encountered similar problem. And I have found this reason. I think this may help.
