..does the executable need to be in the same folder as EUO or can I set a path to the exe that EUO will be able to find?

You can give a complete path to it.  You *MIGHT* have to convert the path to 8.3.  Not sure about that.

8.3 ? as in changing the long file names and making them 6 char's long with this at the end: ~1 ?

I tried that and it sorta worked, the executable I'm using is located @ c:\progra~1\TheExe.exe , while it's supporting files are located way back in "My Documents"...I think I found a way though...I'll post when I'm sure.

Nope, didn't work. Gonna have to ask users to set the install directory to the location of their EUO executable   :-X  ;)
