Hello VEE Group,
I am having trouble with VEE looking for data files in the default files
location. Using a file i/o object, I specify the file name without any path
information. I expect VEE to look in the current working directory for the
file. Some times it does and sometimes it does not. Does anyone know why
this happens? One solution would be to get the current working directory,
but I can not figure out how to do this.
Any help is appreciated.

I do everything relative to ~installDir, if that is an option for you.
For example, I import libraries according to the current UUT. The name
of the UUT is a folder in the installation directory. So to build a path
to this file I use ~installDirUUTfile.vee
For the users data files, I am on Winnt so in a formula box I build the
path
"C:\Winnt\profiles\" + getEnv("username") + "\name of test\" +
datafile
Hope that can help.
