Relative Sop Path Issue

[SpencerL]

Hey,

I am new to hscript but basically I have a post-render script that reloads the file sop that imports the file. That works fine when I specify the absolute path to the SOP, but now that I am creating an HDA and I need to use a relative path. When I use a relative path it does not seem to work.

here is my syntax for absolute path:

opparm -C /obj/geo1/file3 reload 1 <Works Fine>

here is my syntax for relative path:

opparm -C ../file3 reload 1 <Does not work>

I know that I could do a opcf command to switch to that path, but wont help me since Im creating an HDA and therefore do not know the exact path that it will be placed in.

what am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Of course! Like I said, I am a total amature when it comes to hscript. Thanks again Rick.

no worries, I'm a newbie when it comes to hscript. I never know when to enclose my variables in quotes or when not too.
