 for simplify maintening, i would like to use default path in formula.
 
 For example, i've write :
 ph_runscript_3 ("..\vbscript\serena.vbs", "vbscript", 1, 2000, "cmd_ballon2", "off", 0, "0")
 
 rather than :
 ph_runscript_3 ("H:\Program Files\powerhome\vbscript\serena.vbs", "vbscript", 1, 2000, "cmd_ballon2", "off", 0, "0")
 
 But it seems to works sometime and don't work other time ... The reference path seems to change with time.
 
 What do i have to write ?
 
 Thanks
 
 Philippe

 Thats the problem that Peter was having.  Over the course of time (or some unknown event) the current path would change.
 
 One suggesting may be to use the ph_getphdir function.  Something like:
 
 ph_runscript_3(ph_getphdir() +  "\vbscript\serena.vbs","vbscript",1,2000,"cmd_ballon2","off" ,0,"0")
 
 The other thing perhaps would be to store the vbscript directory into a global variable and then use that:
 
 ph_runscript_3("{VBDIR}\serena.vbs","vbscript",1,2000,"cmd_b allon2","off",0,"0")
 
 where {VBDIR} = "H:\Program Files\powerhome\vbscript"
 
 Since the path is subject to change, I would always code the full path rather than rely on the relative path.
 
 Dave.
