I have a program which has a list of datafiles, containing filename and the
directory ID in which the file lives, rather than keeping a full pathname.

Since I am using Lightspeed C's stdio routines, I need to be able to get a
VRefNum (or WDRefNum) from the dirID, so that it can be plugged into SetVol().
Then I can simply call fopen(fName,"r").

Any ideas?


Thanks in advance,
