I am trying to call a relative path with [folder], but it keeps insisting it's not there.  I'm assuming 'relative' means relative to the top-level Max file, but the docs aren't clear to me about that.  There are no spaces or special characters in the names.  And a relative path should begin with ./ right?  Is there a trick here that makes this less straightforward than it seems it should be?

I always get the path to the main patcher using [thispatcher] and make my own full paths using sprintf.

Yeah, I've always had trouble with this too, it never seems to work. I do the same as Chris and use [thispatcher] and sprintf or [combine].
