program folder

[droll]

i have a bunch of xml files that hold the config options for my app. i place
these in the output folder of the app. it gets deployed to the target
device. how to i reference these files in my app? i understand there is no
notion of a default or working path in windows ce. is there an API i can use
to get the path to the file?

Try

System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().CodeBase
