I'm working on a program that needs to place a text file in the Windows system
path, write to the file, and eventually retrieve the file adding it to a zip
file for return to me.  I know that the VB setup wizard can be used to place
the file in the system path without a problem, but I have to be able to find
the system path in the program in order to write to it and hopefully zip the
file when needed.  There must be an easy way to find this info, can anyone tell
me the API call I need to use?  I know the system path is different on some
systems (when not using default windows dir and all or in NT vs 95/98).  Any

UINT GetSystemDirectory(

    LPTSTR  lpBuffer, // address of buffer for system directory
    UINT  uSize  // size of directory buffer
   );

This gives you the system directory, reagrdless of OS (95,98,NT)

Good luck!!
