This might sound like an easy question to answer, maybe not. I need my ocx control to retrieve the TRUE app.path of the VB Project containing it.
If I call the app.path function from within my usercontrol, it only returns the app.path of it's self. If I call the GetModuleFileName API function, it returns the VB path which is not what I need either. Any ideas? Thanks.

App.Path of the Usercontrol's Parent form
Hi, Ziman.
Give your control a public property of, say appPath. In the form initialise or form load event of the app' containing your control, set the value of your_ctl.appPath = app.path.
