Although if you're interested in only the path, there's
FSRefMakePath as well, which is actually a bit easier. Most of my

If I remember well, the drawback of FSRefMakePath is that it only
works on existing files. It does not work on new (non-existing)
files. It might not be a problem in this case, it is just a thing
to keep in mind :-)
You can check if a file exists by grabing the FSSpec with
REALFSSpecFromFolderItem and running that through FSpMakeFSRef. Then
use FSCreateFileUnicode to create the file when needed before calling
FSRefMakePath. Not sure this is the sanest route, but if anyone wants
an example check out the OpenFILEFromFolderItem function in the PNG
Utilities source - there's also a read-only version in the ZZip
