exec ..\program and subfolders

Postby tvonbrasch » Sun Aug 26, 2018 6:00 am

Hi

I am struggling with finding the correct path when using the exec command and when the called program is in a subfolder.

i have a program located in a subfolder, and in that program, I would like to execute a program located at a higher level. I thought I could use the code

Code: Select all

exec ..\program


but it does not work....

calling a program at the same level as the parent program works fine

Code: Select all

exec .\program


see attached example

how can I avoid this problem?
