What is the function to retrieve the <profilename> as in the path above?

Many thanks

Ollie,

you can read the environment

Code: Select all Collapse

#include "FiveWin.ch"

function Main()

   local cValue := Space( 256 )

 //  MsgInfo( GetEnv( "USERPROFILE" ) )
   
   GetEnvironmentVariable( "USERPROFILE", cValue, Len( cValue ) )
   
   MsgInfo( cValue )
   
return nil

DLL32 FUNCTION GetEnvironmentVariable( cName AS LPSTR, ;
                                         cValue AS LPSTR, nLen AS LONG ) ;
   AS LONG PASCAL FROM "GetEnvironmentVariableA" LIB "kernel32.dll"

Stefan

kind regards

Stefan
