What is a good, better, best way to retrieve the actual path of my common
data files after an SB6 install?

Lynn,

Sorry, Vista, the code signing certificates, etc. slowed down things here.

Microsoft recommends to use SHGetSpecialFolderLocation (use the
CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA csidl).

The installer also makes use of this API ;-)

Does this help?
