Title:
Copying Files included in .APP to File system
I have the following file added to a project and then compiled as an APP:
testfile.txt
At runtime, I am attempting to copy this file to a new user entered name with the following command:
COPY FILE testfile.txt TO (lcFileName)
Where lcFileName is the user entered filename and path. On my PC the above code works with my development path intact. I tried moving the development directory to a new location (not in the FoxPro path) and then tried to execute the program. I now get a file not found error message.
I want to copy the internally stored files to the new name on the file system. It seems that the COPY FILE command is always looking at the directory level only (not in the project file). Any suggestions on storing the file in the project and being able to copy it to the file system? Thanks.
