Zitat von Paul van Helden <[email protected]>:
Good. What is the recommended function for the inverse process?
I don't know for the ExtractRelativePath, but for CreateRelativePath it is
simple:
AbsolutePath:=AppendPathDelim(ABasePath)+RelPath
I'm talking specifically about /relative/ paths, ie. ones with ../../../ in
them.

Graeme: you also missed this. None of those functions take a base path and
applies a relative path to produce a new absolute path. The function must be
able to go up some directories and then down some others.
ExpandFileName does exactly that.
