I plan on putting them in the same place as my application. That way they
are less likely to be overwritten by someone elses app (in the bizzar
situation that another delphi developer uses the same files names as
myself). Also it keeps all the files associated with my app in the one
place rather than scattered about the HD in many places (which is always a
good thing). I'm using the packages as plugins so it makes much more sense
to do it this way so the user can get access to their location easily to do
appropriate 'stuff'.
Nahum.
