As suggested by someone else, the 'working directory' field (in the
program object in OS/2 and in the icon's properties in Win98) will
allow you to specify a network directory where the data files are
stored.

Also as noted, watch out for FAT drives since they will limit the
ability of OS/2 to save long file named attachments.
