When editing a data entry or batch application, or while using CSCode, select Code -> Path Adjuster. A dialog is shown that facilitates working with absolute and relative paths in CSPro logic.

The dialog allows you to specify a path and see how it is expressed as a string literal, with proper escaping for the backslash characters. In the above example, the path "C:\AMO\Images\UVA.jpg" must be written using escaped backslashes when using logic version CSPro 8.0+: "C:\\AMO\\Images\\UVA.jpg". The Always use forward slashes option replaces backslashes in paths with forward slashes; e.g., "C:/AMO/Images/UVA.jpg".

If specifying a directory or file path in the Relative To field, the dialog will display the evaluated relative path. In the above example, relative paths would appear as following:

The ... button allows you to browse for a directory or file path. The Copy button copies the text, or CSPro logic, to the clipboard.
