Find the physical path of windows environmental variables (C#/Forms App)

[Curtis Rutland]

I want to get the actual physical path for some of the Windows Environmental Variables.

If I typed %TEMP% into the Run prompt on Vista, I'd go to the folder: C:\Users\userna me\AppData\Loca l\Temp

I tried putting %TEMP% as the path for a DirectoryInfo object, but that didn't work. Does anyone know how to do this?

Try this out

String Temp = System.Environm ent.GetEnvironm entVariable("TE MP");

Use the string Temp in your Directory Info. All the enviornment variables can be obtained using GetEnviornmentV ariable function.

Thanks a lot, for some reason I always forget about System.Environm ent. I appreciate the help.
