Specifying where Authorware searches for files

You can change the default location where Authorware searches for files.

To specify where Authorware searches for files:

  1. Select Modify > File > Properties.
  2. Click the Interaction tab.
  3. In the Search Path field, specify the location of external files.

If you don't specify a drive in the path, Authorware defines the path relative to the location of the Authorware file.

To specify multiple search paths, separate the names with semicolons. For example, the following path searches the root level of a hard drive named Main and then searches the A7W directory of a mounted file server named Group:

Main\; Group\A7W
