Aconx Posted April 22, 2006 Author Share Posted April 22, 2006 (edited) I don't really understand what you mean with Full Path, what I mean is if there is like a variable or a funktion i can call on to get the path were the program was launch. ex. I my program/script is in the directory c:\prog\au3\path\Script.exe and in the same directory is a text file c:\prog\au3\path\text.txt it's not realy a problem to open it if i know the path to the textfile like now. but say that the script and the text file are in an unknown folder. What I whant to know is how do i get the path to that folder from which the program was launch? commenly known in windows shell as ".\" edit: I feel kind of dum now, since that was exatly how you got to that path by using ".\" Edited April 22, 2006 by Aconx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you do is put the .exe name in and it returns the full path from where it was "launched" from. Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt...
