problem with pathname format
« on: February 22, 2008, 01:31:43 PM »
5.6 on Windows - Upgraded from 4.8 - new user

Some menus aren’t functioning as the path they are looking in starts correctly, such as c:\fptech which I assume it’s getting from PATH settings but then it flips to UNIX format with forward slashes for the rest of the pathname. Is this a config setting somewhere or possibly something my user did while setting stuff up?

Cannot access menu.
C:\fptech/fp/menus/UtilIDX: No such file or directory

The direction of the slashes is not a problem.  Windows and MS-DOS have always allowed either slash in pathnames.

Verify that the listed path is, in fact, correct, and that there is, in fact, a menu by that name in that directory.
