I am trying to open a text file hosted on the pc hard driveWhen i try and run my code in the emulator mode (armul) the code works fine the file is found and ll is well. However when i run the same code on the arm board it runs and says it cant find the file. The code in question is:-CODE:FILE *file_ptr;
        int address[2014], value[2014], i, j;
        file_ptr = fopen("M:\\Documents\\final project local\\book1.txt","rt");
        if (file_ptr !=NULL)
                {
                        printf("settings file found\n");
               
               
                        for (i = 0; i < 2014; i++)
                                {
                               
                                        fscanf(file_ptr,"%x",&address[i]);
                                               
                                }
               
                        fclose(file_ptr);
                                               
                }
                else
                printf("file not found\n");

}any ideas??? thanks http://www.8051projects.net/forum-t6234.html 2009-01-07T21:46:16-08:00 shyam well the function calling seems ok..some more details wud have been better... cud u give a little more insight of the system? which uart are u using hope u r using uart1 instead of uart0... u will nwwd the right handshaking to read the file properly also M:\\Documents\\final project local\\book1.txt is a long enough address try something shorter and without spaces in betweenex k:\\project\\test.txt plz check n reply
