I have a machine with VFP on it that does not remember my environment.

Wes,
Do you run VFP as an administrator? If not, The Resource file you are overwriting may be virtualized, and the corrupt resource file is under the Program Files.
I launch each project via a shortcut using a custom config.fpw file that sets a different resource file for each project.
One of my targets is: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual FoxPro 9\vfp9.exe" -T -C"C:\work\Testing\Resource\config.fpw"
The Start in: is pointing to the folder where the project file is.
The config.fpw file sets the resource file with the following line: Resource=.\Resource\FoxUser.dbf
It's a little bit of setup that saves plenty of time in the future. The Command Window history becomes separate for each shortcut. I count that as a plus.
HTH, Tracy

Perhaps your default directory is Read Only or something like that?

--- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---
When you start VFP, what are the values of:
? SET("RESOURCE") ? SET("RESOURCE",1)
There's a good chance the file is read-only. Create a new resource file in the directory you want to work in, point to it in your CONFIG.FPW, and specify the CONFIG.FPW using the -c command-line parameter in the shortcut you use to start VFP.
