EDBEngine Error In starting compiled program

I regularly copy files from working directory for home/work development.
Both systems have same Aliases, IDAPI.cfg
I get this error ' EDBEngine error in  mainprg.exe ' .Val file is out of
date ?
when starting... Please help?  Thanks..
 

Re:EDBEngine Error In starting compiled program


That usually happens when the .VAL file does not get copied along with the
rest of the files for that table.

Hi,

I think you are using Paradox. Then some files (val files) must be missing
in the copy you take home...

When you copy a table you have to copy all the files that make up the table.
.db .mb .px .val .x?? and. y??
If you don't copy all these files you get them out of sync and the "out of date"
message you currently have.
You will have to delete the .val file from outside of Delphi to get your table
working.
