XL2000: Macros to Return Windows and System Directory Paths (213496)
The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q213496 SUMMARY
In Microsoft Excel, there are no Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications functions to determine either your Windows or your Windows\System directory paths.
NOTE: It may be possible to work around this situation by creating a macro that makes calls to the Microsoft Windows application programming interface (API). This type of programming is supported by the Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) and the Visual Basic, Professional Edition, support groups. The level of support that you can receive from these groups depends on the individual support policies of the group. (Microsoft support engineers may not be able to assist in specific construction of macros that use API programming.) If you have limited programming experience, you may want to consult one of the Microsoft Solution Providers. Solution Providers offer a wide range of fee-based services, including the creation of custom macros. For more information about Microsoft Solution Providers, call Microsoft Customer Information Service at (800) 426-9400.
