I don't know jack about the internal workings of Windows, as I'm about to demonstrate with this question. :)

Say I have my B3D app running alongside one or more other apps. If my app changes to a specific directory to read files, and then one of the other apps gets focus which changes the current directory to something else. When my app gets focus again, will the current directory automatically be set back to what it was before losing focus, or do I have to cater for this?

I would normally try to use full path specs when accessing files, but I have a situation where doing this isn't desirable - from a coding perspective. :P

Thanks in advance to any Windows bod who can clue me in.
