To expand a bit on this, you should have a separate dUFLP folder for each version of dBASE you use. The compiled *.??o files are not necessarily compatible with the different versions of dBASE. If you have removed dBASE 2.6 completely you can keep the same folder but you need to delete the *.??o files. There is, however, one problem. FIXCORUP.ICO is not a compiled file, it is an icon. Save a copy of this file somewhere handy. In dBASE select the Tables tab in the Navigator. Select the dUFLP folder. In the command panel enter !del *.??o The ! is telling dBASE to use the DOS del command. All the *.??o files are gone and they can't be recovered so it's important that the .ico fie was saved. Later you can replace the saved .ico file. While you're there select the Programs tab and run setup.prg. If you installed a second copy of the dUFLP in a different folder select that folder and run setup.prg. Once you have run setup.prg the sourcealias :dUFLP: will find the correct folder and create a .??o for the version of dBASE you are using. Mervyn. | |
