Michelle,
Use sys(16) to find where the EXE was launched from. CURDIR() will be affected by the Start In Directory that is assigned to the shortcut to the exe.
You can put folder names inside () to have CD, RD, MD see the spaces:
x = "c:\program files\devstudio"
cd (x)
>Is the dir that the executable was started from automatically the default dir if there's no config.fpw?
>
>If not, is there a way to determine what dir the exe was started from?
>
>Can you set the properties found in config.fpw, such as setting the temp file dir from within the app rather than the config.fpw?
>
>Is there some way to get CD, MD, RD to work with dirs that have spaces in their names?
