    Default importFileInto path problems

    Hi!

    I have problems with the paths that use this function with each situation.
    In projector author or local shockwave I can pass the all path or use the '@'
    char before the file name if it's in the movie folder.
    But when I run a shockwave server application, the importFileInto need the all
    local path like
    C:\WINNT\system32\Macromed\Shockwave 8\DswMedia
    I think that the correct will be use the '@' char before the name to reference
    the DswMedia folder.
    How I can do to detect or do the importFileInto command detect this path
    reference ?

    Thanks and regards,

    Gons.

    One note from the 8.0 help

    Note: In Shockwave, you must issue a preloadNetThing and wait for a
    successful completion of the download before using importFileInto with
    the file. In Director and projectors, importFileInto automatically
    downloads the file for you.

    hi!

    Thanks for reply!
    I can't use the importFileInto without preloadNetThing in shockwave?
    If I have files in the dswmedia directory before the application start what
    can I do for get this files ?
    A method is use a static path like 'c:\WINNT\system32\Macromed\Shockwave
    8\DswMedia', Then this run without problems.
    But If anyone change the folder name of this path, the application wouldn't
    found the files.

    greetings,

    Gons.

    I can't use a preloadNetThing because my file is in the local dswmedia directory.
    Can you help me with this ?
