Ok, I think I understand it now! :jumping: I feel really stupid it didn't
click before but for some reason my comprehension has gone south for the
winter! 

The whole "relative path" means "same folder/directory". Jeez! 

Basically my test case and data file(s) need to be in the same folder. As
long as they are, I can store my test case on our shared drive and access it
through Jmeter from different machines. 

:drunk: <---me this weekend now I got this figured out! 

Thanks again sebb-2, your patience is truly a virtue!
