[AccessD] CurrentProject.Path syntax?

Well - if your mentor was old that must have been true!  :-)

Or, as my old mentor used to say...look after the nanoseconds and the
seconds will look after themselves.

Indeed, and using Replace is about 4 times faster that the IF THEN test, but
it must be rare that you need to shave 3,000 nanoseconds off the execution
time. :-)

Or,

Str = str & "\"
Str = replace(str,"\\","\")


Or,

Just  type a slash in.

CurrentProject.Path does not end with "\", which is why I keep this little
function handy...

Public Function QualifyPath(sPath As String) As String
    If sPath & "" > "" Then
        If right$(sPath, 1) = "\" Then
            QualifyPath = sPath
        Else
            QualifyPath = sPath & "\"
        End If
    End If
End Function

.. By using it I don't have to think about path terminators.

...the following two lines point to the same file ...but only line two works
...what is my befuddled mind missing this time?

'MetaDraw0.LoadPicture (CurrentProject.Path & "MBCC_HallC_Spring_001a.mdp"),
0, 0 MetaDraw0.LoadPicture "v:\JISWORKING\TMS\MBCC_HallC_Spring_001a.mdp",
0, 0
