hmm hadn't checked that..
 
I let the user enter a directory in a cfg file.. when they run my
program it reads the config and goes to that directory, I am reading
in the line that says what directory...if this is a different drive to
the current one, does that mean it wont work? lets say I am in C:\TEMP
and the cfg file says work directory is D:\WORK
 
Will I have a problem with chdir?
 
Simple enough to get around I suppose.. d$=left$(blah blah, if d$
current drive then....
 
..
