Guest Man-wai Chang ToDie Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Does Vi$ta have one? I have an old Foxpro application that used to store data in "c:/program files/myapp/data". With Vi$ta, security becomes an issue for the "progam files(x86)", and I need to relocate the data folder .... -- @~@ Might, Courage, Vision, SINCERITY. / v \ Simplicity is Beauty!

Guest Dennis Pack Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Man-wai Chang ToDie: You should be able to setup a file in ¡§c:/myapp/data¡¨ and have the Foxpro application default to that file. I have multiple programs that save all data to a different data hard drive. Have a great day.

Guest Dennis Pack Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Man-wai Chang ToDie: I haven't turned off UAC since early in the beta programs. One thing in Vista that you may have to get used to is the security settings on folders which may restrict access unless you allow all users.
