I've got a variable (vPathName) that contains a reference (i.e. path) to
a file:
--> file "Work:DMS Group:Database:Test Images:xxx.jpg"
I can change the name of the file by:
set the name of vPathName to "NewFileName"
great, however the variable still contains the path to the old file name.
How do I get the path to the newly renamed file?
I need it to put back into the database (FileMaker) where I got the
original pathname, so that it will point to the correct (i.e. renamed)
file.
Thanks,
LEN
PS - is it just me or is this mailing list kind of confusing - where are
all the posts? am I the only one? I guess I was expecting more of a
newsgroup kind of thing. Anyways, any help would be very appreciated.
