I am using the following code to read a file from the expansion card. On the
device if the filename is "/palm/temp.jpg" it can open the image for
reading. I want to get the same behaviour on my PC using simulator. I have
tried "c:/palm/temp.jpg" as the filename (the file is present on my pc). But
it returns an error that indicating that the file couldnot be found. I think
the simulator is searching for the file some where else. Where should I
place my file so that my program running on the simulator can access it.
