I am trying to run odbcddf on my main company and I keep getting an error that the file.new can not be copied to file.ddf and i should contact DBA support.  I can run this routine in my test company successfully.
Does the program UT-J Generate ddf files do the same thing?

If you do copy the DDF files from another company, the internal data structures
of those DDF files will still point to the other company files.
 
I believe ODBC requires the datafiles for it's table definitions to be in the same folder
as the DDF files, so I don't know how angry    this will make ODBC that internally, the
pointers are to a different folder.
