Another possibility is that You opened the file in the other
directory and then LOGTO'ed the current.
Especially watch out for file pointers kept in common -
if You use them the open and logto may have been done
outside the current program.

If you are on a UNIX system the file may be a symbolic link to a file in
another account.  If this is the case, it is a really bad idea in my
opinion.  (1) It is very confusing!  (2) It can cause problems,
especially on UniVerse, when the file is resized.  If you find the file
is a symbolic link it would probably be worth your while to get rid of
the link and modify the F pointer to point to the real location.

Subject: [U2] File pointer question

I have a file that is a F pointer in the VOC yet when a BASIC STATUS is
ran on the file it points to a file in another account. Have not been able to locate the reason for this. I am sure it is
something simple.
The VOC entry look like this
F
FILENAME
D_FILENAME

The results from STATUS  looks like this D:\directory other than the
directory I am current located\FILENAME
