Thank you for any idea.

FILE(CURDIR() + "\TEST.DBF") IS THE CORRECT SYNTAX.

Dear Richard,
I try this FILE(CURDIR()+"\TEST.DBF") on my SD card in PPC but it return .F.
CURDIR()+"\TEST.DBF" = "Storage Card\TEST.DBF"
It doesn't work.

It works with my ppc app. i use the file(...) several times.
make sure your test.txt is on the root of the sd card, if not
IF FILE(CURDIR() + "\whatever\test.txt")
It works on PPC but not work on Emulator
