LS- finding user's Temp directory

HCL Domino Domino Forum
1

Having found some code in the sand box to create ndl files (notes document links) for e-mailing Outlook users- I want to find the current user’s temp directory- the sand box code puts the file in the root of C:\ - not a great place for creating files- I have looked through these forums- don’t find it. And the VP forums on the web, seem to come close- I cant type echo %temp% and get the temp directory- must be a way to capture it. Ideas?Tom

Try one of these two methods

Declare Function GetTempPath Lib “kernel32” Alias “GetTempPathA” (Byval nBufferLength As Long, Byval lpBuffer As String) As Long

Sub Click(Source As Button)

Dim tempPath



If Environ$("tmp") <> "" Then

	tempPath = Environ$("tmp")

Else

	tempPath = Environ$("temp")

End If



Print "Method 1 - tempPath=" + tempPath



Dim retval As Long

Dim buf As String * 512



retval = GetTempPath(512, buf)

Print "Method 2 - tempPath=" + buf

End Sub
