[SLUG] More Wine VB questions

I think I am talkng to the serial port now. But I have another question. The
VB app comes up specifying two locations for two files. One is the file the
program reads from to load data and the second is the file the program stores
data to.

The defaults are
C:\EEWrite.txt and C:\EERead.txt

Of course I do not have this in a C: drive and I am not sure how the handling
of the '\' to '/' done. The programs reside under the following directory:
/home/xpondr/ms. I need to enter into the window where the two files above
are specified the new location, of course if it was XP I would just replace the
C:\ with say C:\Program Files\FA2\EEWrite.txt, but not sure how to handle
this with the VB app in wine. I know that what I am doing is not correct since
it barfs when it tries to find the files to open and read/write.
