Hello all.
In my DLL code how can I find which directory it is located and being called
from by the calling app ??
Sure I can find the calling app using Application->ExeName but what of the
DLL itself ??

Use GetModuleFileName(), specifying the HINSTANCE that is passed in as a

parameter to your DllEntryPoint() function.
