To the best of my knowledge, it is not generally possible to do this using the FILES$ command in newer (7.6+?) versions of the Mac OS. In older versions of the OS, it was possible to set a couple of system global variables to accomplish this, but this method no longer works. Having said that--it _is_ still possible to set the initially-displayed folder, but in order to do it you have to use Toolbox calls, rather than the FILES$ function, to display the "Open" and "Save" dialogs. - Rick
