FullPath is not case sensitive.
hmmmmm. Another thing to try is to just specify the subdirectories in the path statement.
SET PATH TO graphics;data;utils

I borrowed this code from your reply to David Frakenbach. Just for giggles, put a wait window in this code to see what the current path is.

wait window set('path')
lcImageKey = trim(lcImage)
lcImageFile = fullpath(lcImageKey)
