The PREFIX is not searched to locate resource files or bitmap images. That implies hardcoding the path to the bitmap images or resource files.

An alternate method is to load the path to the .bmp's and .brf's into the global string table in an initial startup program:

     X$=stbl("!BMPS","e:/bitmaps/")
     X$=stbl("!BRFS","d:/basis/resource/")

Then, access the bitmaps or resources using the string tables as follows:

     H=resopen(stbl("!BRFS")+"myres.brf")

     PRINT(gui)'TITLE'(TBID,"BITMAP="+STBL("!BMPS")+"MYICON.BMP")

     PRINT(gui)'IMAGE'(X1,Y1,X2,Y2,STBL("!bmps")+"MYIMAGE.BMP")

Using this method, you only have to hardcode the path to the bitmap files in one place (the startup program), and can change it fairly easily if needed.
