Error with 2023 and Customization Directories

Found an interesting issue with 2023 on my workstation.  Programs on workstation, shared data and programs on server.  Server and SQL are 2019. 

I use Customization Directories to keep my modified forms and my clients' forms separate.  Especially the PO and OE forms which I try to use the ODBC forms.  Anyway, I went to print the default OE invoice 01 in Sample Company Inc and received the "Error in File.....The table could not be found" error.  I logged onto the server and test printed from the server and had no issue.

Thinking I modified the OERPT.INI file in the programs folder, I went to set back to normal using "datapipe," but I found that I had not changed it.  I tried everything copying OEINV01 and OEINPR3.dll from the server to my workstation.  Same error.  Tried OEINV02 and got the same error.  I then proceeded to un-install then re-install 2023 but there was no change.  I un-installed and renamed the program folder and re-installed to a new program folder.  No Change.  All this trying to print a standard OE invoice from SAMINC.  Printing a datapipe report from PO was no problem.

The problem I found is the customization directories.  If I removed the entries for custom folders, I was able to print a datapipe report in OE.  Once I put it back, the "table not found" error came back.  I used local workstation path and then UNC for server folder path and neither worked. 

I thought maybe a user rights issue but I have no problem with a PO datapipe report.  Now I am stumped.

Any suggestions??

Thanks in Advance.

    The way it has always been is to create the custom folder and copy the xxrpt.in file as well as the dll.  If you select a report and it exists in the custom folder it will run using the ini file in the custom folder.  If the does not exist in the custom folder, it looks to the program folder and uses the ini file from the programs folder.
