I had created a series of constants to define image locations. The images are stored in different
locations during development, in subfolders under the Media\UI folder. In runtime, all images will
be dumped into a single folder called 'Graphics':
#DEFINE IMAGE_LOC_RUNTIME	ADDBS(SYS(5) + SYS(2003)) + "Graphics\"
#DEFINE IMAGE_LOC_DEV		ADDBS(SYS(5) + SYS(2003)) + "Media\UI\"

#DEFINE IMAGE_LOC_BASE   	IIF(RUNTIME, IMAGE_LOC_RUNTIME, IMAGE_LOC_DEV)

#DEFINE IMAGE_LOC_EFFECTS	IIF(RUNTIME, IMAGE_LOC_BASE, IMAGE_LOC_BASE + "Effects\")
#DEFINE IMAGE_LOC_ARROWS	IIF(RUNTIME, IMAGE_LOC_BASE, IMAGE_LOC_BASE + "Arrows\")
Using this technique, I have been able to use a constant when assigning graphics at runtime. The
base image location is determined by either IMAGE_LOC_RUNTIME or IMAGE_LOC_DEV.

Now the requirements have changed. The base location for the images will be configurable by the
user.

So the question is, how to I implement that here without going and changing all the places I'v
used a constant?

Thanks
