Bonjour David,

You should have a look at Ken's tips:
http://www.sonsothunder.com/devres/revolution/tips/file010.htm (specialFolderPath' Codes) http://www.sonsothunder.com/devres/revolution/tips/env007.htm (Vista "Gotchas" You Should Know About)

Merci Eric,

I had looked at those links previously. Very informative, but they don't answer my specific questions. Once I can identify the best folder to use, then I will be able to look up the details on Ken's remarkable table.

Hi David, there is one thing you also have to be aware of in Vista. With the delivery settings of Vista the user dir /AppData is hidden. So if your user should have access to what you are storing you either have to create a new folder in the user dir or the user has to switch OFF the folder display option "don't show hidden folders" (or whatever it is named in the English
version)
Just FYI
Tiemo


Thanks Tiemo. I am not too worried if a folder is hidden, as long as it can be accessed for read and write via the standalone. For any files the user can access directly, I will use the documents folder. This is just for the app to access.

So, are C:documents and settings\all users\application data (XP) and C:/programdata (Vista) the best bets?

David
