Many thanks Paul, but it doesn't show the location of "My Documents". The
constant for that is #CSIDL_PERSONAL, but that isn't listed in the snippet.
Update: I just found out that the value for #CSIDL_PERSONAL is 5.
As a side-note, now that I can read Registry keys, I've discovered there's a
whole bunch of special folder locations stored here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellFolders

What can I say... I only listed the ones that I occasionally use.
Anyways, I mentioned it as to point you in the right direction.
(much quicker than having to slug through the Win API)

Unfortunately it lacked the very one that I needed.

It did indeed help me in my quest -- LOL!
