Paul,
Take a look at
http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0054.htm
There is VB code to get the "Special Folder" locations and it doesn't look

If you saw Andrew's reply you will have seen that somebody has already
done the work for you - so you can spend the time relaxing with a beer

GetSpecialFolderLocation. I'll bet that news2news or one of those sites
would have it. I Googled "Win32API documents directory" and found
