in the old
vb-6, it was easiest to have my program store
(user-created) documents in the same place where the program was
installed .. c:\program files\my-program.
??? in
vb-2008 where should they be stored ???
on my windows xp machine, there is a
(c: \ documents and settings \ all users \ application data)
folder where a lot of programs seem to store user-created docs.
but .. on my vista machine, there is no such folder.
some programs store their docs in folder
(desktop \ owner \ app-data \ local)
there is also a (public \ publics docs) folder
there is also a (c: \ program data) folder
there is also a (c: \ users \ public) folder
there is nothing proprietary about the docs that my program creates.
i want the docs to be accessable to all.
i want them to be accessable on a simple network
(2 or 3 pcs hooked together)
if possible, i don't want vista users to have to give permission
for my program to create the doc.
??? where is the best place to have my program store the docs
it creates ???
thanks
