Hi Shari and all,

>> You can get the path to these folders using the  specialfolderpath

>> function can be extended beyond the default "special folders" by 
>> passing an integer that corresponds to the Windows API 
>> SHGetFolderPath  value/constant. The values for the "Applications

>>
>> get specialFolderPath(35) -- common Application Data folder
>>
>> get specialFolderpath(26) -- user's Application Data folder

> What about the folder "Program Files"?

> There is a folder "Program Files".  The path to the folder "Program 
> Files", what would be the code number for this?

why don't you store all available folders for later use ? ;-)

on mouseup
   repeat with i = 1 to 100  ## should be enough
     put specialfolderpath(i) & cr after fld "your special folders"
   end repeat
end mouseup

You can then frame that field and put it on the wall,
right over your computer :-)
