I believe that OpenTables fires before BeforeOpenTables, because it calls BeforeOpenTables. Seems weird if you use colloquial english logic, but makes sense from the point of view of VFP.
When the DE calls the OpenTables method, the first thing this method does is call the BeforeOpenTables method to know whether there are things it has to do before opening the tables, like for instance, establish the path. I think I read this in some of the guru's books on VFP (and I've read them all !!)
