I have an app where the first thing a user must do is load a specific
type of file. I have provided a demo copy of this file with the app
and stored it in the install directory - but I don't know where the
user will install the app. How can I get the path to the install
directory at run time?

Thanks in advance,
Ted
 
The following gives you the directory where the exe loads from.

System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory
