Working Directory from SFGetFile.

I know this has been hashed about before, but I don't seem to have
backlogs of the items.

How do I set a working directory (OpenWD call) from the Reply
information from SFGetFile or SFPutFile?

I think this relates to a problem I am having:

I save a file to a folder.  A previous copy of this file in the
System Folder (same name) gets deleted.  How come?

Also is there a good reference book on the Mac File System?
Something that normal mortal humans can understand as opposed
to the descriptions in IM?

Thanks, in advance,
