So, you need to grab the path and filename they specify, at the time they specify it, and store it somewhere. > Thought I could save requiring full pathname by the use of the docs > example: > > set the defaultFolder to it > launch "MyProgram.exe" > launch it Nope. Now I understand what you are thinking. You thought by using "it," RunRev would magically find the location of an EXE on a user's hard drive and launch it. Doesn't work that way. You have to know where it is. > So are the docs are really incomplete by not giving a full contextual > example. Docs are hard to write because the writer writes to an audience level but the audience can be outside the considerations of the writer. > Does the code need to be: > put defaultFolder into tOrigDefaultFolder > set the defaultFolder --(what do I put here as the actual directory if > its not a full pathname?)

This is so in any programming language.
