Absolute and Relative File Names

Post by Matt9537 » Fri Jan 25, 2008 12:59 pm

We're having difficulty with some of files and creating a standalone application. On my program, I got a mixture of relative and absolute files, so when I export it, I only see the relative files. So, to change it to relative we changed the source code from: (for example)

/Users/documents/files

to

documents/files

worked for the pictures but not for the videos. The videos just vanish! How would we do it for the videos and is there an easier way to do this???

Thanks1
