Result
Returns the filemaker path.
Description
Converts a native path to a Filemaker path useful for "filemac:" and "filewin:" path specification.The difference between a native path and a Filemaker path on Mac is, that Filemaker expects to have the Disk Name in front followed by the rest of the path. Mac OS X functions require paths from the root disk to start without volume name. Other disks have paths starting with "/Volumes/name".
Examples

MBS( "Path.NativePathToFilemakerPath"; "/Users/test/Desktop/picture.jpg")
