Question from a stuck newbie......

[Mav505]

Ok here's my question,

I'm using an ini file for this application I'm writing, in the code do I have to point to the specific directory where the ini file resides or is there a way to tell it that the ini file is in the same directory as the final exe file...Does that make any sense or have I just made everyone as confused as me???


Any help would be appreciated


Cheers

Here is how to determine if the ini file is in the same directory as the final exe.

If Dir(App.Path & "\inifile.ini") <> "" Then
Msgbox "Ini file is in App's directory!"
Else
Msgbox "INI File not found!", vbCritical
End If

You can specify a file path, if not it will open the file only if it is within the same directory as the program.
