Program directory?

Hi,

Is there a command to read the path from where my program is started?? I can't find it anywhere in the help files or documentation...

Thanks!
Jurgen

Taken from another thread...

Code: Select all

Directory$ = Space(500) 

GetCurrentDirectory_(500, @Directory$) 
If Right(Directory$, 1) <> "\": Directory$ + "\": EndIf 

Debug Directory$

Also take a look at the CodeArchive on http://www.purearea.net

There are a lot more Snippets and Tips that could be useful for you and that aren't mentioned in the help (because a lot of them are Windows only, i.e. API Stuff).
