Ollie,

you can read the environment

Code: Select all  Expand view

#include "FiveWin.ch"

function Main()

   local cValue := Space( 256 )

//  MsgInfo( GetEnv( "USERPROFILE" ) )
   
   GetEnvironmentVariable( "USERPROFILE", cValue, Len( cValue ) )
   
   MsgInfo( cValue )
   
return nil

DLL32 FUNCTION GetEnvironmentVariable( cName AS LPSTR, ;
                                         cValue AS LPSTR, nLen AS LONG ) ;
   AS LONG PASCAL FROM "GetEnvironmentVariableA" LIB "kernel32.dll"
