I have checked the values, Renoir, with WAIT WINDOW and it is as it should be.

Later I put the directory in the Path and used just the file name and it did not work.

Just want to confirm, this I am running from an EXE. Isnt the EXE supposed to have the reference of the SPR file in it so that I can be run straight, also I believe the FILE() command works for files inside the EXE.
