This article was previously published under Q168044 SYMPTOMS
When deriving a class from CRecordset, ClassWizard may send the following
error message:
The file names (<path>MyFile.h, <path>MyFile.cpp) for the class "CMyFile"
do not exist or are invalid file names.
CAUSE
This problem occurs if the current directory is changed sometime during the
derivation process. For example, if you are using a DSN for an Access data
source, but you haven't specified the path to the MDB file. This causes a
dialog box to appear so that you can navigate to the MDB file. When the
dialog box is closed, the current directory is not reset to the project
directory. The .h and .cpp files are created in the current directory,
where the MDB file is located.
RESOLUTION
Use a DSN that consists of a qualified path to the database file or
directory.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed
at the beginning of this article.
This problem was corrected in Microsoft Visual C++ .NET.
