Hi Benji-

There are a couple of things you could do. You could add -param "bidirectory" to your startup, and you could then use SESSION:pARAMETER to read in this directory name.

Also, if you have VST (Virtual System Tables) enabled (available in 8.2 and greater), you could use the following code:
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Arial, Verdana">code:</font><HR><pre>
FIND FIRST _Startup.
DISPLAY _Startup._Startup-BiName.
[/code]

HTH.

Hi,
If you have connected to a database
and used the -g parameter to point to the bi file in a different directory, is there any way of knowing within progress tramlines where the bi file is.

waiting for an einstein to solve this !!
