Jan,

May be a bit tangential to your request, but, having experienced this would 
like to share.

A couple of years ago one of our users tried to open an email file attachment 
which did not present but did establish the CryptoWall virus and proceed to 
spread across mapped drives to server resources. After discovery and 
remediation of several PDF and XLS files on our NAS device (mapped drive) I 
then removed all mapped drives across LAN workstation devices. Now using only 
UNC pathing to launch all server resources (and of course, R:BASE applications).

Just for your consideration…

Subject: [RBASE-L] - File location

My turn!

I need to make sure external documents are placed in the proper directory.
On the surface it's pretty easy.

However I have been running into some obstacles.

1. UNC/Mapped drive - machines on the network either use a UNC connection or a 
mapped drive make it difficult to figure out the "home" directory
2. It appears (only occasionally) that the (CVAL('CURRDIR')) returns a 
directory other that RBase if you have used the file explorer tool.

So I'm kind of looking for a fool proof way of making sure I have the proper 
file location.

Suggestions?

Jan
