When I build a standalone .exe it works fine, but when I move it to another directory, it doesn't carry latest mods with it. I tried adding FOXUSER.DBF/.FTP to the project, but now I can't rebuild the project. Mystified - I've been doing this forever. Not an "expert" so I need some help.

FOXPRO V 2.6a Standalone .exe 1
- Thread starter MIZPAM
- Start date
My only guess is that there were some programs excluded from the project (say, MyProg.PRG) that are available locally, except when you move the EXE. But that should just cause it to blow up, so that's probably not it.

You certainly don't need to add foxuser table to the the project.
Could it be that (i) the project doesn't include certain files that are used by the app and (ii) the directory you're moving the exe to contains fxp or prg programs that are out of date or (iii) your path is pointing to directory containing out of date files?
Either way:
Given weird behaviour, my usual approach is to delete the project file, and build a new one. It occasionally takes half an hour to do, but it solves weird problems.
