Data file name and access path

Data file pathname of the final application. The pathname set can be absolute or relative to the structure file (.4db). Two syntaxes are accepted:

  • Windows:
    C:\mybase\folder\mydata.4DD (absolute)
    \folder\mydata.4DD (relative)
  • Mac OS (HFS):
    Macintosh HD:folder:mydata.4DD (absolute)
    :folder:mydata.4DD (relative)

You should choose the syntax depending on the platform that the final application will be running on.

If this key is not used or is invalid, on the initial startup of the final application, 4D will look for the data file next to the structure file and, if it does not find it, will display a standard open file dialog box so that the user can indicate its location.
