>Sorry. There is a dialog when building a setup that allows the user (who is installing an application) to pick a "Database Directory". IS also has a [DATABASEDIR] var during the install that points to the folder they chose.
Oh. That is where indicate what files belong to your database [e.g., the DBC, DCX, DCT, DBFs, CDXs, etc]. You defint the default path you want for your database in the General Info section under Organize Your Setup. Just scroll down, you will see DATABASEDIR and a textbox to enter the path
