New question from me. :)

Is there any elegant way of determining which directory is equivalent to "Program Files" on a given windows mobile device?

*I'm developing an app that will be localized to several countries, and need to determine the Program Files path dynamically regardless of which region or country the device is localized for. I'd like to avoid having to hardcode every possible localized version of the file system.

Examples:
"\Program Files" (English)
"\Programfiler" (Norwegian)
"\Programmen" (German)

and on and on...

Is there for instance any environment variable on winmob devices that lets me determine the path on that device?

Regards,
Thomas Nilsson
