no, ".\text" is a name with . + tab + "ext.txt", which is not valid.Use any character in the current code page for a name, including Unicode characters, except characters in the range of zero (0) through 31, or any character that the file system does not allow. A name can contain characters in the extended character set (128–255). However, it cannot contain the following reserved characters:
< > : " / \ | ? *

It's a path. Though I don't know if CreateFile will interpret an absolute path or directory of if it will just accept a filename in the current directory.

Ummmm...
No it is not.
A '\' is not a character. A '\' requires a second character in all cases.
'.\\' or '..\\' is a path
As Robwhit said, the compiler reads '\t' as a TAB, making '.\text.txt' == '. ext.txt'
I suggest you try this in your compiler and report your results.

And why don't you just use CFile and CArchive if you are using MFC in the first place??
We're talking about real paths here, now how you type them in your compiler
Obviously, in a C++ string, you'd have to type ".\\text.txt", which would translate to ".\text.txt".

EDIT: My previous post was directed at the OP (but reads as if directed at you. Which was not my intention, sorry.)
