Hi!

1) >You can find the starting directory (the directory active at the time the application starts up) with FULLPATH(CURDIR()). You need to do this before you do any CD or SET DEFAULT TO

>
2) >You can find the path of the executable with SYS(16,0); you'll need to strip the program name from the path returned.

1) Will be betterif I will not use SET DEFAULT TO
2) ...last text lins from VFP help for SYS(16) - Executing Program File Name:

"When the executing program is part of an application (.APP), SYS(16) returns only the name of the program — the path isn’t returned with the program name."

... but it`s work!

Thank you for prompting!
