_dbwinhome example

The following statement changes the directory to dBASE Plus’s \Sample subdirectory:

cd "&_dbwinhome.sample"

The macro operator is used to expand the path name contained in _dbwinhome. The period acts as the macro terminator. The resulting command looks like:

cd "C:\PROGRAM FILES\DBASE\PLUS\SAMPLE"

(The path name in _dbwinhome is all-uppercase.) The quotes are required because the path name contains spaces.
