Thanks for the suggestion, but this method will require the EXE to be
running to return the correct value. My current method only requires an EXE
file to be in the development folder so my method will work even if in the
IDE.

Maybe take a look at "_VFP.servername". That returns a character string 
of the .exe (including path) that is being executed.

Example:
my_exe_file = _vfp.servername

I don't think this will work if you are running ".app" files - in that 
case it may always return the path to the VFP9.exe executable. But if 
you run that line of code within a compiled VFP .exe, you should always 
get the path/name of the .exe (assuming that is what you're after here).
