I'm writing a CODE resource that is called by an application.
My CODE has to open an existing resource file in the same folder
as the calling application.  I know the name of the resource file
(eg "MyFile") but (I think) I need to append this to the full path
(eg "Disk:Excel 3.0:") when I call OpenResFile().

Can someone tell me how to get the path name of the calling application's
folder?  Or is there some other way?

Thanks,
Stanton Loh
