Problem with ExtractFilePath in C++Builder 10 Seattle under Windows 10

I have a problem with ExtractFilePath in C++Builder 10 Seattle under Windows 10.

My simple program is as follows.

My application directory is ‘test2’ with a sub directory named ‘docs’.

• AnsiString Path = ExtractFilePath(Application->ExeName);

• Memo1->Lines->Add(Path);

• OpenDialog1->InitialDir = Path + “docs”;

•                If (OpenDialog1->Execute()){

•                     …

•                }

If I run the program in the IDE  (Run F9) the result in my Memo for Path is C:\test2\.\

(The “.\” at the end of the Path looks strange)

The OpenDialog don’t show the directory ‘docs’ but stay in the Application Directory ‘test2’.

If I run the executable without debugging (Shift+Ctrl+F9) in the IDE than the result for Path is: C:\test2\ and the Opendialog shows the right ‘docs’ directory.

This is also the same if I run the program directly from the File Explorer.

Please can somebody tell me how to handle this problem?

Best Regards,

Roland
