Get the program folder

I don't know if there's an actual API call on this or not, but you can always pluck this out of the registry. It's always in the same place on any version of Windows: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ProgramFilesDir -OBRon

Have you tried looking at the SHGetFolderPath(), SHGetFolderLocation(), SH* functions?

The problem is that the program files folder can be on several drives. I have MS office installed on my D drive and the installer created a program files folder by default. You'd have to search all fixed drives to make sure that it does not exists on any of them. Tom Wright tawright915@yahoo.com
