ah wait, I already know what the issue was:
When running this code in the IDE, it works.. it starts in the dir where I saved my sourcecode. But when I make an .exe of it, then the app's file requester always starts @ c:\My Documents, no matter where I run the .exe file.. so if CurrentDir$() doesn't fail, then does RequestFile have a bug? I assume it should request a file starting in the current dir ... at least that's what I think is logical..
ChangeDir CurrentDir$() f$=RequestFile("bla") End
