Is there any alternative to App.Path in VB .NET?

Also App.Major/Minor/Revision?

Thanks in advance!
 
Hi,

Application.StartupPath, Application.Version. Application does not
alway return the right result. Here is what i use.

Public Function AppPath() As String

Return
System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().Location)

End Function

Also don't forget to use:

Imports System.IO
Imports System.Reflection

It seems if I leave those two out I end up with problems. Otherwise, Ken's
suggestion seems to work the best of all solutions .
