Hi quick question...
	What the best method of getting hold of a Application's Obey dir'.
I'm using Desktop C - so basically I need the path that resspr etc uses
to find its resources. At the mo. I'm launching the file with the usual
!Run, but with the ugly line...

	Run <CADshell$Dir>.!RunImage "<CADshell$Dir>"

	Then using argv [1] to pick it up - theres gotta be a better way ;-)

		Thanks in advance - J.T.T.B. Tom.
