 REDCapRITS also works with the data export script (a.k.a., *syntax file*) supplied by REDCap. Here is an example of its usage:
 
 ```r
-# You must set the working directory first since the REDCap data export script
-# contains relative file references.
-setwd("/path/to/data/")
-
 # Run the data export script supplied by REDCap. 
 # This will create a data.frame of your records called 'data'
-source("ExampleProject_R_2018-06-03_1700.r")
+source("/path/to/data/ExampleProject_R_2018-06-03_1700.r", chdir = TRUE)
 
 # Get the metadata
-metadata <- read.csv("ExampleProject_DataDictionary_2018-06-03.csv")
+metadata <- read.csv("/path/to/metadata/ExampleProject_DataDictionary_2018-06-03.csv")
