App.Path Problem

67
Hi all

I am very new to VB programming so i appologise now.

I have several small programs i have collected over the years. I have created the forms i need but i am having problems with the coding. I want to run from any cd drive so i am trying to use the App.Path in my code with the click of a button but it either can't find the exe file or it tells me the App.Path needs to be declared.

If anyone please show me some code that would work i would be grateful

app.path referes the path of the EXE not just any location.
