    Can anyone tell me the name of the config variable that points to the
    current file path?

    I don't think there is one that specifically returns the path, but _DGNFILE
    returns the file name including the path. With a simple MS Basic macro you
    can get the path :-

    sub main
    Dim MyPath as string
    MyPath = fileparse$(MbeGetConfigvar ("_DGNFILE"),2)
    mbemessagebox MyPath
    end sub

    If you set a config variable to _DGNDIR it looks in the directory where your
    active file is.

    I have the following in my .ucf


    MS_IMAGE > $(_DGNDIR)
    MS_IMAGEOUT = $(_DGNDIR)/bilder/
    MS_RENDERLOG = $(_DGNDIR)/bilder/render.log
    MS_RFDIR > $(_DGNDIR)/snitt/
    MS_RFDIR > $(_DGNDIR)/../snitt/
