undefind folder path

i have created a new problem

in a thread on this forum i asked to get the name from the folder after documents and setting
i know how to do this so i can go on

the next problem is here

C:\Documents and Settings\Davy.DAVY-QUYO\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects

on this location of my pc there is a map
only 1 map

the problem is
the name of the map is on evry pc diffrent

and i want to find out what's the name of this map
so i can reach the file's behind it bewause i need them to comunnicate with my website

so my question is
how can i find the exact name of a folder on this location

hope i can do this

does you folder have any constant letters which it can be identified by? how do you generate your folder's name?

with me the folder name = VZ7E3UL5
it had been generated by macromedia flash who stroes their shared object at this location
it's the same as cookie's
but i need to past these map to get these files

with someone else this folder has a difrent name

loop through all folders and check if the files in them are the ones you need (if the files in the folder have a name which you know and doesn't change)

and how do i do this

VB Code:

Option Explicit
Private Declare Function PathFileExists Lib "shlwapi.dll" Alias "PathFileExistsA" (ByVal pszPath As String) As Long
 
Private Sub Dir1_Change()
Form1.Caption = Dir1.List(0)
End Sub
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim fexists, x As Boolean
Dim filename As String
Dim i As Long
fexists = False
 
'write the path you want to search (it will search all folders within for file)
Dir1.Path = "d:\bin\"
 
'set the file name you are searching for
filename = "w.txt"
 
For i = 0 To Dir1.ListCount - 1
x = PathFileExists(Dir1.List(i) + "\" + filename)
If x = True Then fexists = True
Next
 
'fexists is true if file was found, else it is false
Form1.Caption = fexists
End Sub

this code requires you to add a dir list box which is part of the
default controls

ok it wil do with that

only one problem

i can now read the shared object

the next thing i want to ask is

when visual basic reads the file

the first
27 letters must be ignored while reading how can i do that

VB Code:

dim x,y as string
'if x is your text and its 27 first letters should be emmitted
'use the following
y=mid(x,28,len(x)-27)
