I'm trying to change the working directory when a form opens.
setWorkingDir(":W\\Instore\\Event\\")
The working directory is not changing. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you.

Should it not be
setWorkingDir("W:\\Instore\\Event")
i.e. no trailing backslash. Also check the position of the colon (maybe just a typo in the post).
