Re: Search for a file on hard drive?

Thanks all you guys. That's all i wantted.
The only thing is , the directory that i want to search is a subdirectory of
the current directory. Since i don't know the current directory( i don't know
where the application installed) so i need to know how could i get the current
directory ?
