Directory for Windows Vista

[Michael Correll]

Ken:

No.  Folder structure is much different  in Vista.  "C:\Program Files 
\XYZFolder" is now "C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\Virtural Store 
\Program Files\XYZFolder".

I have a copy of Vista but have yet to partition a drive and load it,  
so I can't tell you much more than that right now.   However, I did  
test my Pan 4 app on a Vista machine and in installing files intended  
for "C:\Program Files\XYZFolder" in XP, the resulting folder was  
installed to the above path.

The procedure was simple:
local NewFolder
                NewFolder = "C:\Program Files\XYZFolder"
                MakeFolder   NewFolder
		...etc...

I have a few installations running under Vista and so far no  
complaints.  Sorry I can't give you more detail right now.  I guess  
I'll just have to get around to loading it.  We're all going to have  
to deal with it sooner or later.

MC.
