Ever called f.absolutepath when this file is located at \\.PSF\? It crashes, but not sure if it is RB or Parallels.

When you have Parallels installed on your MacIntel and you would want to run your windows executable produced by RB-MacOSX then you need to tell Parallels to create a shared folder. The root of this shared folder is called \.PSF on windows, but its absolute path would originate from the Mac. If you call GetFolderItem ("myTestFile") in your app, which also is located in the \.PSF directory then you cannot call f.absolutepath.

Has this been reported and filed?

Why do you need to call absolutepath? As you probably know, its use is not recommended for other than showing info to the user.
Can't you use the .parent/.child protocol to get where you need to go?
