Iam an IDL newbie and have a question that I believe is pretty
straighforward for most of you:

I am writing a program that has various subroutines that are withing my
working directory. However, in the beginning of the program I want to
be able to call and restore a '.sav' file that is in another
subdirectory than my current working one. Basically, I have a 'data
directory' and 'idl programs directory' and need to be able to access
both of them within the program that Iam writing.

I have tried the !PATH function but I am still getting a 'file cannot
be found error'- perhaps I am not using the proper syntax though?

any help would be greatly appreciated,
