    Question Path Dir (should be easy this one)

    hi,

    in VB6 I could use app.path

    but in .NET that isn't so..

    how do I get the path of my app?

    VB Code:
    1. MsgBox(Windows.Forms.Application.ExecutablePath())

    that will do the job
    There's a certain mystique when I speak, that you notice that it's sorta unique, cause you know it's me

    edit: wait a minute isnt that what I just said?!!!


    btw the ExecutablePath function also returns the exe filename with it. That's why I just use the simpler StartupPath function.

    Umm and yes, it's nice to search if you wanna search for .net stuff though, dont search it up there in the search textbox, because you're gunno get a whole bunch of vb6 stuff (mostly). Click on the small search button and on the combo box on the bottom of the page, choose the vb.net forum
