Here's a more detailed description of what I want to accomplish:

---------8<----------------
APPL_OBJ := $(DOBJ)\SourceFile.o

SOURCENAMES = $(addsuffix .c,$(notdir $(basename $(APPL_OBJ))))
---------8<----------------

This makes $(SOURCENAMES) contain:
SourceFile.c

All good so far. Now, assume SourceFile.c is located in C:\Source. Is there
a way to make Gnu Make
find the path to this file so that I can get a variable containing:
C:\Source\SourceFile.c ?

I am building this on WindowsXP.
