Location: Saint Helens, OR              Quick probably simple question.  I have 
the following code:

  Dim dbFile as FolderItem
  Dim db as REALSQLdatabase
  db=New REALSQLdatabase
  dbFile = GetFolderItem("data/copyfolder.rsd")
  db.DatabaseFile=dbFile

The above code works fine on my windows machine, but does not on my mac.  
Even though the file is there, my app continues to say not found.  I assume 
that it is an issue with how I am defining the path?!?

Basically, I want the application to always look in a sub folder of the folder 
that the application is run from for the database file.
So if this app is run from inside the "/users/desktop/test" folder then the 
subfolder with the database would be "/users/desktop/test/data"

Again, this works fine on Windows just not Mac for whatever reason.
Hopefully this makes sense.

Thanks in advance!
