I open a file with this code.
cFileName = GETFILE('MCP', 'Data files:', 'Open', 1, 'Select a Data File')
nHandle = FOPEN(cFileName)

and cFileName will hold C:\AMCP2\DOWNLOAD\APX0912.MCP but I will get a -1
return to nHandle which indicates it failed. But how could this be. I pass it the path and all. I notice foxpro returns path commands with a backslash on
the end of the string. Like CURDIR() and so forth. Is there something I should
know about foxpro's ways in dealing with directory commands. Thanks for any help.
Thanks
