$ini="a.ini"

The official release

Didn't work at work or at home

If you're using a beta should I report this as a bug?

Rick, it isn't a bug but a script issue.

The $ini = FileSaveDialog changes the current directory.

Run this code so you see what i mean....

DirCreate(".\WebPageInfo")
DirCreate(".\Url")
FileDelete(".\Url\temp.txt")
do
   $INI = FileSaveDialog("Select Your Ini file to save your web page info in", ".\WebPageInfo", "Or write in a new name (*.ini)", 10)
   If @error = 1 Then
      Exit
   EndIf
   If not (StringInStr($INI, ".ini")) Then
      MsgBox(4096, "Kirkhams Programs", "You must type .ini after your filename")
   EndIf
Until StringInStr($INI, ".ini")
Sleep(100)
$RET = ""
$URL = "http://kirkhamsebooks.8m.com"
Runwait(@comspec)
$RET = URLDownloadToFile($URL, ".\Url\temp.txt")
If $RET = 0 Then
   MsgBox(4096, "Kirkhams Programs", "Unable to download" & @CRLF & $URL & @CRLF & "Please get your information directly from the source with View")
EndIf

Ahhhhh clever you are (in my best Yoda impression)

Thanks buddy now I can work around it by using @scriptdir or even getting the path from an ini
