Refnum to Path odd behaviour

[Mark_L]

I want to get the file name from a refnum.  

I understand that Refnum to Path does not work for configuration files.  According to help "You cannot wire configuration file refnums to refnum."  Why this is a special case does not make sense to me.

Regardless, I found a behavior I do not understand with this function.

Using Refnum to Path immediately after opening the file reports <Not A Path>, yet if placed in a sequence structure it does report the file name.

Back to my first task.  Is there anyway to get the file name from a config file refnum?
