Change Directory to where the EXE is

Change Directory to where the EXE is

Postby Ollie » Thu Jul 12, 2007 10:01 am

I cannot rely on the users' shortcut to ensure I have the right "working directory"

How can I find the name of the directory of the EXE that is being run so I can change to the directory where the EXE is with

DirChange(ALLTRIM( CurDrive() + ":\" + EXEDIR????()))
Many thanks
Ollie.
