You don't say which OS you are using, but assuming we are talking about Windows, there is a standard place to store app data such as your database file. Ie. in the hidden "AppData" directory in the user's home directory. Can you not use whatever Windows' standard algorithm is for determining the correct location? Even if you trying to be OS independent, it seems likely that there is a lib out there somewhere that provides the necessary support for all OSes. I'd be very surprised if this is not already a solved problem. Paul -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
