I am about to submit to a Journal and they require that replication should be as easy as possible. All my statistical analysis happens in a program.

I don't know how I can specify that the working directory for the program is the current program folder.

string path = @runpath
cd path 'define default directory

is not working. I looked at the documentation and I searched the forums, but I can't find an answer that works.

Edit: Forgot to add, I am working with EViews 8.

I looked at this, but neither

cd @runpath nor cd @linepath work. I want the program to completely execute just by doubleclicking the .prg file, but it says "Path or file not found : @LINEPATH in "CD @LINEPATH"." And "Path or file not found : @RUNPATH in "CD @RUNPATH"." when I try to run it like that.

Thanks. How come I have to save it as a replacement variable first?
