    Resolved Application Path? RESOLVED

    Code:
    Set cn = New ADODB.Connection 'we've declared it as a ADODB connection lets set it.
    cn.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
      "Data Source= C:\Documents and Settings\Rick\Desktop\~Uni Work~\Poker Buddy\DB1.mdb" 'this is the connection string explained in the notes section.
    instead of C:\Documents and Settings\Rick\Desktop\~Uni Work~\Poker Buddy\ i just want App.Path & DB1.mdb

    but i keep getting an error not sure where to put all the speech marks. Any help ?
