File is not opening even though it exists [closed]

Answer 1

Your application has a "Working Directory". This is the directory in which it tries to open files.

In your case the file is probably not in the "Working Directory" of the running application. So the solution is:

• Put the file in the "Working Directory" of the application
• Change the application "Working Directory".
• Use an Absolute Path for the file name.
