[QUOTE="gatorbrit, post: 1230535, member: 200648"] I am running a statistical program that is running in the following sub dir: [CODE]MacintoshHD/Users/Myname/Dropbox/Stuff/Subfolder [/CODE] And I want to reference a file located in another folder. [CODE]MacintoshHD/Users/Myname/Dropbox/OtherStuff/OtherSubfolder [/CODE] When I program: [CODE]read "/Dropbox/OtherStuff/OtherSubfolder [/CODE] I get file not found. In Linux this would have worked (I think). In windows I would say [CODE]read "d:/Dropbox/ blah blah blah"[/CODE] Do I need to put in the full path with the MacintoshHD part as well? Many thanks Rich [/QUOTE]
