Fisch, are you trying to access a text file that is within the same
directory/folder as your projector? Or are you trying to access a file
within the "Applications" folder found on the root volume of the boot drive?
I guess your initial post was a little unclear in that area, so I made the
assumption that you were looking to get at a file that is stting right next
to your projector, and dashed off the "moviePath" response.
Maybe we need a little more info?

This will, of course, give you the path to the drive where your movie is
installed. If your movie is running on a CD-ROM, or on a different hard
drive, the moviePath will not be helpful.
