I'm currently using an xml file to hold configuration information for my application (big thanks to JohnH and MattP for thier xml programming help!)
The application allows the user to output an xml file and then add config information to it. Now or later on the user will run the application to access the xml file and change specific config information.
My problem is that I can't figure out how to get the program to automatically find this configuration file when the user runs the application.
I was considering having the program create a text file with the path to the configuration file in a default location and using that to find the config file, but it seems like there should be a better way to do this?
This is kind of a weird issue to explain so let me know if you have questions and I'll elaborate further. Thanks for your help.
