sweet, thank you for this!!  I will play with it a day or two and let you know how it worked for me. PS you could try somewhere like rapidshare or megaupload for free file hosting, the link won't change there. But they will delete it after X amount of time with zero downloads.

hmm, it is just looking in the default docs and settings location for my LDW folder. my docs and settings folder is inside WINDOWS, but otherwise the path is the same. I dunno how C works, does it have variables like %userpath%? that points to the correct location no matter where I stick my docs and settings.

I dunno how C works, does it have variables like %userpath%? that points to the correct location no matter where I stick my docs and settings. Dear Smurf, Can you do me a favor and go to the command prompt (start button > Run > cmd.exe) and type echo %userprofile% and tell me what that says? it should return the name of a directory. if you then go to windows explorer and enter that directory name, (hopefully) you will see your "My Documents" directory in there, and within that the LDW folder. if you do I can fix the application to work on your system which would be very nice! (if not i have the wrong environment variable  and will keep looking.) how did it happen that your save game folder is located where it is? did the setup program just install it that way, or did you ask it to install it there? where did you buy vv2 from if i may ask? thank you very much for helping to improve the application. future vv2 families will thank you.

Smurf, I incorporated the %userprofile% environment variable into a version of Tribe Select for you to try. It works for me. I am approximately 87.26% sure this is the right environment variable.

Hi Borg %userprofile% points to C:\WINDOWS\Documents and Settings\[My User Name] I'm using a self-customized stripped down version of XP, I just set it in the setup answer file to place 'My Documents' inside of Windows, because it annoys me to see it on the main drive.  I purchased vv2 from bigfish games. The second link you posted works great, found my LDW folder no problem Thank you!

Charley,
Bajantara is correct - do a windows xp update and look for something called ".NET" - there are three version of .NET out there, the 2001 version, 2003 version, and 2005 version. It is free.
I was able to write this program in 5 minutes (and debug it in 55 minutes, go figure) because most of the work (radio buttons, labels, etc) is already done by ".NET" . I am using the most current version of C# which requires the most current version of ".NET"
Charley, a while back you had a trojan virus on your computer do bad things. If you are not doing regular windows xp updates you will miss all the security fixes. Having a good anti-virus program and a good firewall are not enough. You need to do the updates. I would guess that ".NET" would be part of those updates. if you can't find the .NET update via windows xp update (i think in Internet Explorer you can just click Tools > Windows Update), I am sure someone here knows the URL to get it. How to did you know about the TRV(Trojan Virus)? And my Windows XP passed the Microsoft validation. And it clearly states that I am set to recieve automatic updates in my Control Panel (if that's what you mean).
