Thanks - I copied the phone.dbf into my folder and of course it works. But how come I can list it but can't select it when it's not in the path. (I tried putting it into the path in the autoexec.bat file, but that didn't work)
I will also try the cd technique that Mike mentioned.

P.S. This is an interesting application others might want want to know about. It's a box that traps caller ID into a dbf table, so that incoming calls can get the phone number, look it up in the customer table and bring up the customer form just as you are saying "Hello".

Subject: [RBG7-L] - Re: Attaching dBase file
R>sel * from phone -ERROR- Cannot find dBASE file in current directory or path. (2585)
Why do I get this error?
Errrr.... because the dBASE file (IS NOT) in current directory or path. ;-)
If you put a cd \caller~1\phone before the select, it will work, then change
back to the RBase Dir. If you don't want to do that, you will have to copy the
dbase file to the Rbase DB directory.
AFAIK, this has always been true.
