Data disappears

Hi -

I have several small apps I wrote a years ago (Clarion 6.1) and they
work fine.

On my keyboard (Microsoft wireless) - there are many "favorites" keys
to launch applications (or websites from) . I set up many apps and
webpages (Word, Excel, Firefox, WebMail, etc.) and they work fine. I
hit the designated "key" and the program starts.

However, I set up 2 of my Clarion apps - designating the corrrect path
and exe file - yet, when I start the app (by pressing the designated
key) - The app starts up fine - but there is no data. I then attempt to
open it normally and it works fine. Can anyone tell me why this happens
and what do I need to do so I can launch those apps with the single
key.

Thanks in advance

Rick

Your app is starting in the wrong folder and it's creating new data files
there. Search for your data files and you'll see where the app starts. You
need to either change the "start in" folder in your keyboard settings
prpgram or code a setpath() in your app.
