didn't try on vista yet but wouln't %userprofile% and %appdata% provide the corrent paths in all OS's ?
No they do not(for what i need), case in point
Server 03
S:\>echo %appdata%
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data
S:\>echo %userprofile%
C:\Documents and Settings\username
Vista
S:\scripting\newlogscript>echo %userprofile%
C:\Users\username
S:\scripting\newlogscript>echo %appdata%
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming
03/XP dont use appdata for location of users start menu
