> How do you get the working directory?
Just like said before, take a look at
Application.StartupPath. But if i
understand your next question correct, you want to save a temporary
file, so it is much better to save this in the correct folder (just
because of access-rights etc.), so get the filename for that with
[b:3c7896d5a3]System.IO.Path.GetTempFileName[/b:3c7896d5a3].
and do you delete a temp file one you are done with it?

Of course.

Regards,
Thommy
