Comments

The *DefaultFileAccessFromWorkingDirectory(True/False) parameter is only run at the time of application launch. Once a file browser is used to read/write a file, the file browser defaults to the last accessed directory until the application is closed, regardless of the *DefaultFileAccessFromWorkingDirectory(True/False) parameter setting. The default parameter file sets *DefaultFileAccessFromWorkingDirectory() to True on Unix and False on PC.
