DDT input file MUST reside in the root C: drive. File is not found for any other path specified.

I want to place the input file that my data driven test reads on a network drive, but TestComplete fails with the error that the file does not exist.  I also tried placing the file in a subfolder on my C: drive and received the same results.  Currently, the file MUST reside on my root C: drive.

      I receive the same error.  Unfortunately, this suggestion did not work. :catsad:
