>>Don't ask why, but my app has never had a SET DEFAULT. Do most applications have a SET DEFAULT? Now for the first time in 3 years it has caused a problem with creating a MKDIR that only specifies the directory name and not the complete path. All the clients have a shortcut on their desktop to the app and that is how they execute it, so the MKDIR creates the directory on their desktop. I want the directory in the app folder.

>>I have added the following lines of code in my MAIN.PRG, but the MKDIR is still created on the desktop. First, how can I tell what is the value of SET DEFAULT? Second, what is it that I am doing wrong to set the default to the folder that contained the application?

This one returns only drive not path

or

lcDefault = Fullpath("")
