Hello guys, Is there any API, which will return the full path of the folder from where my application is running ? Like
GetModuleFilename()API , - but it returns the fullpath , including the filename. thanks

GetModuleFileName(NULL,m_CurrentPath.GetBuffer(512),512); m_CurrentPath.ReleaseBuffer(); m_CurrentPath.Delete(m_CurrentPath.ReverseFind('\\'),m_CurrentPath.GetLength()-m_CurrentPath.ReverseFind('\\'));Iman Ghasrfakhri -

PathRemoveFileSpec Function Removes the trailing file name and backslash from a path, if it has them.
BOOL PathRemoveFileSpec(LPTSTR pszPath); -

Hi Giorgi, AFAIK, There is no such Api to Reterive Folder name only, you have to manually parse the FolderName ! :)

as Blake Miller explained,
PathRemoveFileSpec()exists for that but hey, look, it certainly does what one presented you before (with the reverse string search), and calling it will only slow your prgram down because of an added function call...
