In honor of Father's Day, one of my Dad's favorite business 'grousings', and cautions to his sons:
'Consultants are a dime, a dozen.'

I fail to see the logic there. I know you can never win an argument with

Fixed!
: With help from John at RBTI I figured out what the problem is with
: my LoadFilenamePlus! I changed my code to use the internal plugin
: rather than the external, but I had the same problem. After closing the
: form, my main menu form's group menu functions did nothing. The only
: thing I could do is click the "X" to close the form.
:
: Turns out that with 9.1 they changed it so that it will change the active
: working directory to whatever you were searching for. So I needed to
: add this to my option list: |NO_CHANGE_DIR ON
:
: My group menu bar couldn't find any external files because we were now
: in the wrong directory. And BTW: the consultant I'm doing this project
: with insists on external programs for everything, no internal code, so
: that's
: why file locations are important here.
