How to copy a FRX file from an APP file?

Hi,

My app consists of two major files: the EXE and the APP. The .APP file (e.g. MyApp.App) is where all the report files reside (all FRX files). I want to copy a FRX/FRT file from the MyApp.App to a TEMP folder. For example, if the FRX/FRT files were in the EXE, I would do the following (which works):
lcExtName = FORCEPATH( "RPT_" + TRANSFORM(_VFP.PROCESSID) + "_" + SUBSTR(SYS(2015),3,10), GETENV("temp"))
STRTOFILE(FILETOSTR(FORCEEXT(cCustomRepName, 'FRX')), m.lcExtName+".FRX")
STRTOFILE(FILETOSTR(FORCEEXT(cCustomRepName, 'FRT')), m.lcExtName+".FRT")
But when the file cCustomRepName is in the .APP, it fails.

Any suggestions?

TIA,

UPDATE. One way I see doing it is to move the code (sample above) to the MyApp.app procedure. But
if there is a way to do it from the .EXE file, it would be better.
