You need to look in the windows temp folder. There is an API call for this.

	lnTempLength=512
	lcTempPath=Space(lnTempLength)
	
	Declare Integer GetTempPath In Win32API Integer, String@
	
	lnReturn=GetTempPath(lnTempLength, @lcTempPath)
	
	If lnReturn<=lnTempLength
		lcTempPath=Left(lcTempPath, lnReturn)
	Else
		lcTempPath=""
	Endif
