How to go in the directory you were run in to the executable file in VB

It might be easy, but now I'm brain freezing

If I cd into a directory from the command line and then start the VB.net executable application, is there a way to find the directory it was started from.

I currently have an executable in my PATH, but ideally the person would burn the CD to the directory they want the executable to work in.

Is it possible?

IO.Directory.GetWorkingDirectory () will give you the directory where you hit the CD.

You can use this one Environment.CurrentDirectory

.

Environment.CurrentDirectory gives you this information. Note that this property is also assignable, so you can change the current working directory by assigning a new value to it.
