MYOB 3.5.2 autorun

[Anand Kumria]

I just tried out MYOB (a popular financial program used widely in
Australia). The autorun program on the CD attempts to start programs
using WinExec as WinExec("whatnews\whatnews.exe")

Unfortunately the FILE_contains_pathW function belueves that is a full
path which causes (in files/directory.c):

if (FILE_contains_pathW(name))
    {
        ret = DOSFS_GetFullName( name, TRUE, full_name );
        goto done;
    }

to fail and return an error to WinExec and subsequently not do anything.

The below patch fixes this problem (for me) and lets me install a number
of ancillory programs. Unfortunately MYOB install uses InstallShield6 as
its installer, so I've had no success with the actual program.

Is there a better way to do this patch?

Thanks,
Anand
