Description

This sample tool demonstrates the steps involved in creating and resolving the alias. Instead of creating a document to store the alias, the tool wimps out and stores the alias in a preference file. The tool puts up a StandardGetFile dialog. Selecting a file creates the preference file containing the relative alias; clicking Cancel instead gets the preference file, resolves it, and prints the vRefNum and name of the target. Requirements: System 7.0 Keywords: Alias Manager, relative alias
