    Resolved [RESOLVED] [2003] Finding the System folder

    Is the "C:\WINDOWS\System" Directory in the same location on every computer running a windows OS?

    If it isn't how do I make my program find it by its self?
    My car if Chevy was VB.NET

    Code:
    Public Class MyCar
    Public Sub Camaro()
        Dim Camaro As Car
        Camaro = SS.Fast("Sexy")
    End Sub

    Public Function Fast(ByVal sexy As String ) As String
        Return "SUPER" & sexy
    End Function
End Class

    Re: [2003] Finding the System folder

    Hmm enviornment.getfolderpath doesn't seem to be working.

    Code:
    dim x as string
x = enviornment.getfolderpath
    What am I doing wrong?
