We make PDFs of all reports and store them in a sub. On our network the
database is on Y:\ and the sub is Y:\PDFs\. At home, database is on
C:\RBTI\RBG96_64\Samples and the sub C:\RBTI\RBG96_64\Samples\PDFs. I have
always used (cval('CurrDir')) to locate the correct database location and
store/find the PFDs regardless of the computer. It always works. Lately,
this works correctly in uncompiled versions, but when I compile to an .exe
file the value of CurrDir is assigned the name of the compiler directory
regardless of where the actual .exe is built. We have compiled our system
for several years with no problems. I put a screen of variables right after
CurrDir is fired and the value of CurrDir was  'C:\RBTI\RBG96_64_Compiler'
even when the .exe was built on network Y:\ (work) or C:\ (home).  A
workaround with ISCOMPILED and an IF..THEN works, but I'd rather have
CurrDir adjust to the location of the database as it always has. Any
suggestions?
