Many years ago, when I had (*no*) understanding of Factory (Directory)
methods
at all (in contrast to my present 1% understanding), I had a very
similar problem
with stand alone .exe's.

Not knowing the difference between Files.dir & Files.stdDir (in fact the
Global Variables utility
says they are the same pointer) I used stdDir in my program. It worked
fine in BlackBox, but not
in a packed .exe.

It seems that a different .dir object is need to extract packed files,
and cleverly provided when
needed as part of the packing process. To automatically access it I
should have used Files.dir in my code.


Like Doug, I found the solution was 'obvious'; I asked Oms for help and
took their advice!


Hope this adds something to the picture.
