Hi Sergey!
Thanks for the example.
I've tried your code but I discovered 2 problems.
1. In different languages the 'My Documents' folder
changes its name. In Portuguese, my language, is
'Os Meus Documentos'.
2. Another problem is that sometimes the user change
the location of 'My Documents' folder. I've change
it to another partition - D:\Os Meus Documentos
So, the code you sent me 'stares' at the user folder
inside 'Documents and Settings'.
Then I remembered that Windows stores the location of
special folders in the registry. So I've used Windows
Script Host to read the key/value where that information
is located. We can use the same procedure to locate
folders like 'My Music', 'My Pictures', 'Favorites', etc.
Here is the code:

WSHShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

lcMyDocuments = WSHShell.RegRead("HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders\Personal")

CHDIR (lcMyDocuments)
lcFile = GETFILE()

It worked like a charm.
