Todd,

>Were actually trying to avoid changing the app. Since there are 100's of instances of where we put data into table c:\temp\table . In order to make use of a user folder we would have to go into the app and change the directory. If only the app had a variable that stored the path, unfortunatly to late for that. Also teminal server creates what you have identified for each user .

If you don't have time to change a few hundred cases of a hard-coded path and filename, you must really be under the gun on a heavy deadline. :-)

Really, it wouldn't be THAT big of change, would it? Maybe a day's work or less, at the most?
