Document Reference to Path

2018-03-22 Thread Chip Scheide via 4D_Tech
Anyone have an idea on how to get a file path starting with a document 
reference?

ex:
$Doc_Ref:=Open Document("")
$Doc_ref1:=Open Document("")

any ideas on getting the path to the file referenced by $Doc_Ref?

Thanks
Chip

I believe that the “Document” process variable will have the full path as long 
as the OK var is set to 1. You will need to get the contents of the variable 
after the 1st Open Document.

As was stated here is code
array text($paths_atxt;0)

$Doc_Ref:=Open Document(“")

append to array ($paths_atxt;Document)

$Doc_Ref1:=Open Document(“")

append to array ($paths_atxt;Document)

You can of course use variables but usiong an array allows for unlimited
paths

Chuck
