Path pitfalls....

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

I need to run a euphoria program on a remote network location:
"\\fp-ho1-pr\HO_share\Tier 3 Database\bin\run.exw"

When it is run, the current directory is not that the same as where the file is
stored, because it's being run by an Access macro.
How can I change the current directory?

I'm using win2k, but mapping network drives is not an option, because it needs
to be run by other people.

It won't work with absolute addressing either, because two of it's calls are to
PHP scripts, and they don't like being addressed that way; it comes up with a CMD
error.
The script used to work when only using relative addressing ( \bin,  ..\ ,etc),
and running via a double click... not possible any more.

Any help VERY appreciated.
