    Another! Desktop Path Request

    I've seen a lot of good examples for returning the desktop path
    using the GetSpecialFolder API's but the parameters
    &H0 and &H10 always return the USERS desktop path.

    What I need is the SYSTEM or ALL USERS desktop path.

    What do I need to do?

    Thanks

    Isn't System and All Users always under the windows directory, whatever that is? Couldn't you use GetWindowsDirectory API call to find the windows root directory, and then what you are looking for would be under that?

    Dunno.

    I think the user directory is what was decided.

    Out of my hands now.
