Finding application directory

I have used chdir in my application which works fine for me, but if a user installs my app. to a different directory how can my app. find out where this is during execution?
Is it possible to extract this information from the 'Start in:' as seen in the 'shortcut' properties of the app?
I have tried using 'Path' instead of chdir but cannot get it to work properly.

Thanks for any help,
Alan

check out the App object, it's handy sometimes...
And you're looking for it's path property....
