Re: PIF File

Hi Bill,

A PIF file is a method of setting the parameters required to run an MS-DOS program in a Windows environment. One of the options in the PIF file should be the folder that will be set as the current working directory when the program starts (aka "starting directory")

Have you looked at the PIF file? Have to verified that the starting directory is a valid one?

If looking at the parameters of the shortcut is the same as looking at the PIF, then, yes I have looked at it. Everything is set correctly. I even copied a shortcut that worked correctly on my machine to this one and it still returns the same error message. I can see the server folder and the executable through explorer, so the drive is mapped correctly.
