Finding the location of the application
I want to find the folder where the application is located so that I can access a file that is in that same folder, but I do not want to do the usual naming the folder itself I want to get it through code so it can be moved easily. Thanx in advance

I usually use Application.StartupPath.

Usually, you can just give the path relative to the program. For example, Open("Foo.jpg") (assuming Open is a function and Foo.jpg is in the same folder as the program) should work.
