Debug file written to random directories!?!?!

[Pallex]

This code :

-----
Public Sub DebugFile(str As String)

Dim DFile As Integer

DFile = FreeFile
Open "dbg.txt" For Append As #DFile

Print #DFile, str

Close #DFile

End Sub
-----

seems to write to either the current directory, or into the dir i installed vb into... why? how do i make it write into the current directory always?

actually, looks like it puts it in a different place depending on whether you run the project from within the vb ide, or create an .exe!

Prefix both the name of the file that you read and write with

App.Path & "\"
