Hi,thanks for your prompt reply. Why is it that if I hardcode the path it finds it and if I do the following code it doesnt .The only difference I can see is the "\\" .Am I missing something? var binpath = Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().CodeBase); var fullpath = Path.Combine(binpath, folderName); if (!Directory.Exists(fullpath)) return;
