Let me explain further:

I have a working directory dir ID and a refNum for an open file.  I'm
trying to find out if the given file is in the given directory.  I've tried
various incantations of PBGetWDInfo, but haven't found anything that will
give me a way to find the directory of the open file.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
