>>>While Doug's correct that in most cases the directory is WINDOWS\FONTS, it may not be necessarily true in every case. The Windows Script Host can retrieve this information this way:

>I wouldn't trust that in every case. Special folders, such as the font folder can vary from machine to machine. For example, the My Documents folder here at work is in a completely different location from the one at home. I'd err on the side of caution and go with the WSH (which I'm sure doesn't surprise< g >).

The font folder can be a different name? I've never seen that but that doesn't mean much. "My Documents" is not a sub-folder of windows, so I'd expect that one to be "whereever".
