As long as you save where you started from before you change directories, it shouldn't matter. The value of CURDIR() will change whenever you change directories, so simply saving it before it's been changed works just fine.

If you don't SET DEFAULT TO or CD, CURDIR() should remain the same; I've seen situations where VFP's file save context has been changed by some GETFILE() and GETDIR() calls, but CURDIR() doesn't seem to get affected.
