In addition, if you copied the database files from a CD, chances are that they are read only; make sure that you have full privileges.

Can you now work on forms and reports? If so, the path is definitely the problem. Remember that R:Base must go near or at the very beginning of the path to avoid PATHs longer than R:Base can handle internally. Also, check your spelling -- I recently spent 20 minutes on just this issue because I wrote the path RB75DOS instead of RBDOS75 (or vice versa). -- Larry
