How do I obtain the full pathname given the File, f? (which should
equal "C:\AciiCsv\Gravity_Test_data"). I've tried all sorts of stuff
and am just not finding it. Any help greatly appreciated !
I saw lots of responses, but I don't think anybody pointed out that the
filename is probably invalid. This particular string will work, but if
you have a directory that starts with a T or an N, you may get some
surprises. The backslash is treated specially in a literal string.
When building a Windows directory name in a literal string, you
generally need to do one of three things:
1) use raw literals
2) double the backslash
3) use a forward slash
