Once more I find myself going in circles. I've created a standalone for both Intel and Legacy Macs that plays a number of .aiff music files. At one point it worked great in the IDE, but then I started messing with things trying to get the Legacy version working under 2.6.1. And I accomplished that, I think. (smile) Unfortunately, I have lots of memory and I've gotten kind of sloppy with where things are stored. Partly because of where Rev chooses to put its things; partly because I'm just a bad boy! (smile)

Regardless, I need to get my mind straightened out about this "external" files thing. What is the very best place to have your external files so that when someone puts them on their computer the same relationship exists for them as it does for me. I was always of the opinion that if you put everything in the same folder, the externals would be seen by the application, and not having to worry about exactly where that folder is placed. So, if I have the following setup things should work:

A folder -- That I want a user to be able to drag from a CD to their Desktop or anywhere else they see fit.
   My standalone application
   MusicFolder
       Music1.aiff
       Music2.aiff
       etc.

Then the application should have the source for the players as: / MusicFolder/Music1.aiff -- and so forth

But this doesn't work. Am I all wet someway?

TIA,

Joe Wilkins
