program path to variable

[matan]

how do i get the path of my program ( the location of it ) into a var ? for example : if the program resides on c:\1.exe
when it's launched i will get c:\1.txt into a var .

how do i do this ?

matan,

There are two ways you can do this, both involve using the extractFilePath() function on either of the following:

1. ParamStr( 0 )
2. Application.ExeName

I prefer the former because it tends to involve fewer runtime BPL's, however, your mileage may vary.

For details, please see the online help on these methods.

Hope this helps...
