How can I add a folder on a network drive (like \\TUS-SV-FS\fs\) to the system path? It looks neither sys_path nor file_add_path can do this.

I have PT_Fast.plb located in a folder on a network drive \\TU-SV_FS1\fs\aero\Tools\PCL_RFast.

dump file_add_path(0,"\\TU-SV_FS1\fs\aero\Tools\PCL_RFast")

$# INTEGER = 0

dump file_exists("PT_Fast.plb ","P")

$# LOGICAL = FALSE

I know mapping the network path onto a local disk helps, but I need a workaround without mapping.

I'm not sure why that's not working for you, Elena. Perhaps there is a network permissions issue of some sort? It works for me:

dump file_exists("ds_multi_results.plb","P")

$# LOGICAL = FALSE

dump file_add_path(0,"\\fritwfp01\Backups\Darrel")

$# INTEGER = 0

dump file_exists("ds_multi_results.plb","P")

$# LOGICAL = TRUE

Thank you, Darrel. You are right, file_add_path works great. There were some other reasons for its not working with me, and I have now fixed these. Thank you very much. Your help is as always invaluable.
