Thanks Scott,
What if I want to save data in text files into the same directory/folder
as the app (or a sub folder)?

I'm getting ready to release a program for Mac and Windows, but I'm
mostly a Mac guy, so PC issues are pretty foreign to me. The program
doesn't have any complex installation needs, but I've heard
talk of the
Windows Registry, write priviledges, etc. What do I need to know to
distribute my app to Windows users? For testing this I've just been
copying it to my Windows Desktop and running it from there.
I've had no
problems with that, but I'm sure there are things I need to
be educated
about.
If you are not writing to the registry (which is done explicitly in
your app') then you don't need to worry about that. As for installation
location, 99% of the time - if a general small business or consumer
application -
the Program Files directory is fine. In the rare instance you can't
write to this
then let the user specify where to install it.
Scott
