Can anyone tell me how to reconstruct the entire pathname of a file that
has been selected with the SFGetFile function?  Lets say the file
has a full pathname hd:csource:hello.c.  Calling SFGetfile only returns
a string that says "hello.c".  Where can I get the rest of the pathname?
Thanks for any help.
