Normally a SET PATH TO would be sufficient. If you're using a DBC, then just explicitly open that DBC with the provided path is all you need. wOOdy -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: ProFox Im Auftrag von Gene Wirchenko Gesendet: Mittwoch, 14. August 2019 05:58 An: ProFox Email List

You need to know the location of the data, say lcLocation then: If you're using a DBC it's just open database (addbs(lcLocation) + "mydbc") use table1 in 0 use table2 in 0 If you're opening tables explicitly then then: use (addbs(lcLocation) + "table1") in 0 use (addbs(lcLocation) + "table2")
