VB Program on a non-English speaking computer
I'm having severe problems getting a app to run on a customer's computer in Chili. This brings up a problem I had never thought of before. I have written a VB 6 app that at one point accesses a file whose path is "C:/Users/Public/".
But on my customer's computer, the path is something like "C:/Usarios/Accesso de Publico/". Something in the installation program (which I did not write) translated and installed the files in the right location, but now my program apparently cannot find them. (BTW, the program runs fine on my computer and every other English-speaking computer that I know of.)
How, or what, does the translation when an app, written in English, is installed on a non-English-speaking computer? And do you think it would do any good if this customer made a special folder/path with the specific name: "C:/Users/Public/"?
Any and all helpful suggestions thoroughly appreciated.
