Get drive for file stored as reference

Hi, the Get ( SystemDrive ) returns the drive where FM is installed. Is is possible to get the drive name of a file stored as reference in a container field? Thanks!

Not directly - but you can parse it out from the reference, which can be retrieved using GetAsText ( ContainerField ).

Thanks I tried that, I works OK if I plug a flash drive, also OK if I link a file from my idisk. But for some reason it omits the drive name if I store a reference to a file saved in a Lynux server.
