PRB: Error "File c:\.dbc does not exist" in Visual FoxProLast reviewed: March 20, 1997Article ID: Q165306 |
The information in this article applies to:
SYMPTOMSThe error "File c:\.dbc does not exist" occurs when an exclamation point (!) is used as the first character in the name of the directory that a table is located in. On the Macintosh the error is as follows:
File 'Hardrivename:.dbc' does not existIf the exclamation point is at the end of the folder name the error is as follows:
File c:\<foldername>.dbc does not exist CAUSEAn exclamation point is used in the folder or directory containing the table. When opening a table the name of the database may be used. The exclamation point is used as the separator between the database name and the table name.
USE C:\Vfp\Samples\Data\Testdata!CustomerFoxPro is looking for a DBC with the same name as the folder or directory.
RESOLUTIONDo not use exclamation points in folder or directory names.
STATUSThis behavior is by design.
