CSPro Users Forum

Dear Gregory,
I've already write you about the problem with relative pathname with Cspro.
I would like to know if it's possible to write code with them (relative pathname)
by example with the setfile function.

Thanks for all,

You can use relative path names with the setfile function. It definitely works on the normal Windows file system. I'm not sure if it would work with UNC path names and network drives, but I imagine that it would.

Thanks for your help.
I would like to know if there's a particular syntax for?
Because when i use simple pathname as "\Users\computername\Desktop\foldername" it doesn't work.
Sincerely,

Hi,
can you explain what you are trying to do?

Maybe you need to start from your application folder, something like

\..\PATH\TO\FOLDER

Dears Gregory and Ils,
@ Ils, i try to interact more csentry with other windows programs and use the results of some dos commands inside Csentry. By Example, i can write a code to start and close record an interview regarding a part of a questionnaire using tablet automatically.
I can use mac adress to deploy more securely Csentry's application and more...
It's because i try to write code inside cspro to create file and write command inside using setfile/filecreate, filewrite.

About the relative pathname:
I try either

setfile(getm,".\Desktop\relative_pathname\getm.bat",create);

or

setfile(getm,"\..\Desktop\relative_pathname\getm.bat",create);

infortunately, with no results.
I send to you the application for more help from you.
Thanks in advance

You might want to read the Microsoft help about paths:

Check out the section "Fully Qualified vs. Relative Paths."

Dear Gregory,

Thanks once more,
