//to get full path of document, works for both mac and pc

IDocument *document = Utils<ILayoutUIUtils>()->GetFrontDocument();

IDataBase* theDb = ::GetDataBase(document);

const IDFile* sysFile = theDb->GetSysFile();

InterfacePtr<ICoreFilename> cfn((ICoreFilename*)::CreateObject(kCoreFilenameBoss, IID_ICOREFILENAME));

if

(cfn != NULL){

     if(cfn->Initialize(sysFile)

== 0){

          PMString fulldocumentnameandpath = FileUtils::SysFileToPMString(*sysFile);

     }

}

Hope this helps,

Liz Patten
