I think Bayron is on the right track .. I use the same logic to find the location of the exe that the workstation opened ..
The important part of this code is setting Set Defa to .. location of your exe. This allows you to globally set the location of your app to not only open your tables but to have a starting point for calling your icons and bitmaps ..
It does not matter if you are connecting via a logical drive or by a network path or unc such as :
c:\apps\yourapp.exe
g:\apps\yourapp.exe
\\server\apps\yourapp.exe
By identifying the location of your executable .. you can globally set your Default and anywhere in your app you can get that default by
cDEFA := SET(7) .. returns one of the above paths .. then using that variable get your bitmaps like
cDEFA := SET(7)
DEFINE BITMAP oBMAP FILENAME (cDEFA+"\bitmaps\risto\cafe\cafe.bmp") of oWnd
Hope that helps.

//-- get timestamp on .exe //
cFILE := GetModuleFileName( GetInstance() )
aDIR Â := DIRECTORY( cFILE )
dEXE Â := aDIR[1] [3]
// where .exe started from is default directory //
mSTART := RAT( "\", cFILE )
cDEFA Â := SUBSTR(cFILE,1,mSTART-1)
aDIR := NIL

Hi,
My scheme is:
.exe program+ .ini path configuration in same directory, and separated data directory
Example:
Account.Exe and Account.Ini in something directory.
Run.Ini contents:
So .exe is launched in something directory and path data is independent from .exe.
Just, my 2 cents
regards
