RDecker Posted May 22, 2004 Posted May 22, 2004 What's the correct syntax for specifying a relative file reference to a file that is one level *higher* than the current file? I figured out how to go deeper (file:dataFolder/data.fm7), but if I'm in the data.fm7 file, how do I reference a file in the folder one level up? I tried file:/interface.fm7 (and also with a dbl. //), but that doesn't seem to work. This is primarily Win, but eventually need to go cross-platform to Mac. Thanks, decker
Ender Posted May 22, 2004 Posted May 22, 2004 In OS X, the syntax is file:../Myfile.fp7. If you try putting the files in their relative directories and manually selecting the file reference through the open dialog, it should fill in the relative path for you.
RDecker Posted May 22, 2004 Author Posted May 22, 2004 Thanks. I knew it was something like that. I need to change a number of references already created, so letting FM doing it with Browse doesn't help (though if I'd thought, I could have created a new ref. and seen what was entered...). decker
