I have a prg that calls a form in
G:\psi12.0\custom
Before running the report form I want to change the
directory back to g:\psi12.0
Once there I want to call the report form in the G:\psi12.0\custom
folder then after the report is run set it back to the G:\psi12.0\custom

so I want to back the folder up to ".."
and then call the report form "\custom\report.frx"
then set default back to: SYS(5)+SYS(2003)+"\custom"
The problem is I don't know the correct syntax to back the directory up one
and the call there report in the current folder + custom

I am running this in a application that I did not create and it has a menu list that allows for custom reports. When I run a report to preview the app needs to verify a time and date stamp on a file in g:\psi12.0\system folder. If a user keeps the preview open for a while they get and error "can not verify time and date stamp on \system\bdefault.dbf.

If I call the report from the folder one back from \custom I believe this
error will go away as the app will be in it's root folder and able to find the
system folder from there



Any help would be greatly appreciated
