"...Source Aliasing works only in the dBASE Plus design environment or = when running programs from within the dBASE Plus shell. It is not a runtime feature. To access files indirectly in deployed applications, use DEO (Dynamic External Objects) instead of Source Aliasing...."
In design environment: Source Aliasing In deployed applications(runtime): DEO (Dynamic External Objects For Tables: BDE Aliasing
So many things and only one thing is necessary: SET PATH TO working well.
How much money is necessary to put SET PATH TO working well (like in dbase4, 5, 5.7)?

INI PATH=3DC:\dBASE\LIB1,C:\dBASE\LIB2,C:\dBASE\LIB3,C:\dBASE\TABLES1,C:\dBAS= E\TAB LES2,...... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SET PATH
Specifies the directory search route that dBASE follows to find files = that are not in the current directory.
Syntax
SET PATH TO []
A list of (optional) drives and directories indicating the search = path--one or more drives and directories you want dBASE to search for files. Separate each directory = path name with commas, semicolons, or spaces. The syntax for this command is similar to = the PATH command available in DOS. Unlike DOS, however, you can use spaces or = commas as well as semicolons to separate paths on the list; DOS accepts only semicolons.
Default
The default for SET PATH is empty (no path). To change the default, = update the PATH setting in dBASEWIN.INI with as many valid drives and directories as you want. To = do so, either use the SET command to specify the setting interactively, or enter the PATH parameter directly in dBASEWIN.INI.
Description
Use SET PATH to establish a search path to access files located on directories other than the current directory. When no SET PATH setting exists and you do not = provide the full path name when you specify a file name, dBASE searches for that file only in the current directory. The order in which you list drives and directories with SET PATH TO = list> is the order dBASE searches for a file in that search path. Use SET PATH when an application's files are in several directories.
A path name without a drive letter or beginning backslash begins at the current directory on the current drive. Use two periods (..) to signify the parent directory of = the current directory, and use a beginning backslash to signify the root directory of the current = drive. SET PATH TO without the option resets the search path to the default value (no path). ------------------------------------------------------------------------
