   Typically indicates a Datapath problem.  Make sure the "Datapath"
   statement in the PAWxx.ini file in C:\Windows corresponds with the
   actual path to the company’s files from the user’s ‘puter.

   Not much as a first step.  "Cannot open the file…" means either "I
   can’t find the file to open it." or "the file’s bad and I can’t open
   it."  My experience is that 95% of the time it’s the former,
   particularly on a network setup, and particularly if mappings to the PT
   data (the "Datapath") vary from WS to WS.
