Just to be clear, there are two common uses for the term "path" and i'm not sure which you mean... (1) a filename, e.g. /usrpk/dp/projects/basex/db107 (2) a list of directories (folders) to search for something (DBBPATH) You can open a database at a given file location easily in BaseX from within XQuery using db:open() and for that matter you can search a list of directories. Your wording is abstract enough that i'm not sure i've understood what you're trying to do, though.
