I have an Access application formultiusers that writes a file to
C:\Temp\filename.rtf but now with Windows XP we are not allowed to save any
files to C:\Temp, only can be done to C:\Documents and Settings\USERID\My
Documents\FILENAME.RTF. How can pass that path in Access 2002?

See this link for code to retrieve special folder locations, such as the
path to the user's My Documents folder:
