- Basically what I have is an explicit path to a directory and file on a HD
- and I would like to get the vRefNum which corresponds to this path so that
- I can pass to another application via an apple-event.
-
- Is there any undocumented, slick way of getting the vRefNum within
- hypercard without having to write a custom xcmd, etc..?
-
- Any comments concerning this would be appreciated.
-
- thanx...
