Hello Kelly,

 KS> I need to retrieve the currently executing program's fully qualified
 KS> filename from within an application. Normally, this would be a piece
 KS> of cake, but here are the catches:

try:

 #define INCL_DOSPROCESS
 
 PTIB    ptib;
 PPIB    ppib;
 APIRET  rc;    /*  Return Code. */
 
 rc = DosGetInfoBlocks ( ptib,  ppib);

and take a look at the ppib->pib_pchcmd (PCHAR) command line pointer.

 KS> Has anyone ever done this? If so, how!?

nope

... I program like a MAN.  I use COPY CON PROGRAM.EXE
