Re: Application data folder

Application path is set by your installation program. Other wise if you want all the applications that are installed under an OS (windows), you have to search the registry and/or the directory ..\Program Files\the name of the directory containing the application. Normally they have the mnemonic names of the applications.

Re: Application data folder

I don't get the question???!!! App.Path will get the application path for you. What else would you need?

I don't think it has anything to do with an installer. He simply asked regarding VB6 Code
