This is a big point for our company too. We have also a fixed "SUBST"
drive on all developer machines to keep the absolute paths identical.
Unfortunately we must use a developer tool (LabView), which uses
absolute path names.
km@dfa.com suggested to use loopback mounting a network drive. I will
try this tomorrow.
