I have a database that I'm using which contains the main menu

disconnects the database and sends the commands to an RMD file
in the working directory. The RMD file changes databases and
launches a new menu form. The program was built on the network
that it runs from. For some reason, when another work station
logs in and tries to use the menu option to change databases,
the file that runs it cannot be found by the program. I know
it has something to do with assigning a command that identifies
the file as an RBASE file so that it knows which program to use
to run it, but I don't know how to do that. My machine sees it
and it works fine. However, other work stations don't see it
and it therefore won't run. Any help or suggestions would be
appreciated. Thank you in advance.


Neil,

It has to do with the Windows "File Association".

All you need to do is to use Windows File Explorer
to locate that file from that particular workstation,
highlight that file and use right-click to select
"Open With" ... Choose Program... to associate with
RBG7.EXE.

To open Windows Explorer, click Start, point to Programs,
point to Accessories, and then click Windows Explorer.

This change affects all files that have the same file
name extension as the file you selected.

Hope that helps!

Razzak.
