Thank you for the files! I guess using registry is just about as OS dependent as SHGetFolderPath function, so it could be okay. For now I'll finish the basic framework and add these functions later.

AFAIK, SHGetFolderPath in Windows versions <= 4 is in SHFolder.dll and in >=5 in Shell32.dll. I don't know if there must be a special configration step if you just link with shell32.lib. I'll have to try.

I'm also posting a preview the sources to show what I'm trying to achieve together with some nonsensical example:

PathInfo p;
p.FromFile("c:\\miu\\matz\\miau\\pisu.txt").AddDir("\\a/").AddDir("b\\c\\d").SetFile("pisu.exe").SetDir(4, "AA");

will result in:

c:\miu\matz\miau\AA\b\c\d\pisu.exe

PS: The rar contains some extra files from my future CtrlEx, just ignore them Razz
