N Neil Cowburn [MVP] Feb 25, 2004 #2 Aris, Check out the OpenNETCF.EnvironmentEx class. It has the GetFolderPath method which will allow you to do something like this: string path = EnvironmentEx.GetFolderPath(EnvironmentEx.SpecialFolder.Personal); Alternatively, you can P/Invoke SHGetSpecialFolderPath yourself using CSIDL_PERSONAL. Note: this is not supported on Pocket PC 2002 or earlier.
