In past versions of CVI, using OpenFile with no path meant to look in the local path (in other words the install directory). Is there a way to do this in CVI 2013?

I use an .ini file to allow the users to change the bootup preferneces for the program. In the past that file lived in the install directory and OpenFile could cheerfully find the file and apply the preferences. In CVI 2013, the program seems to need an implicit path to the file. Is there a way around this?

I'm not using CVI2013 yet, but in any case you can build up a full pathname for a file in the application folder using GetProjectDir and MakePathname commands at runtime.



Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.
