Hi Mark I'm not sure I explained myself too well, but looks like this will work either in the message box or in the stack itself I guess. What I meant was knowing where the original stack file came from on my drive when I came to save it again (outside the app). When using SaveAs, Rev displays the Defaultfolder as set by the app not the original folder the file came from. For example, if I open a file from EXCEL, then do a SaveAs I get the same folder again. In Rev, if running the Stack changes the defaultFolder, then SaveAs points to this folder as well. It wasn't clear to me in the docs that the IDE folder pointers were also modified when testing an app in the IDE
This should do fine though, Cheers Mark Schonewille wrote: // full path put the effective filename of this stack into myPath // parent folder set the itemDel to slash put item 1 to -2 of the effective filename of this stack into myFolder You might also want to read in the dictionary about the defaultFolder propery.

In the application I am working on I set the default folder to My Documents. When I want to save the current Rev file (in IDE) as a new filename, SaveAs drops back to the 'default' folder, not the original folder location for the Rev file itself. I can't see any way of determining where the Rev file was previously stored, so I can navigate back to the correct folder and save a new filename there, there doesn't seem to be a properties option.
