Re: Re: Re: Another Win32::OLE question

I've found while working with ::OLE it's best to explicitly detail your file paths and file names, especially if this is a remote application on a webserver. The Webservers working directory ISN'T necessarily the directory of the application, believe it or not.

Be that as it may, I'm glad I could help.

Actually it will be for Windows systems, I will not be running it from a webserver. I was a little hesitant to change the directory to the correct directory because if someone does not do standard installation of my program it will not work. (I will not know what the directory is). Of course with a little bit of thought I got around this by using Cwd at the beginning of my script and then changing to that directory later on. Still there is much to learn, but it is enjoyable. Cheers once again.	[reply]
