I am trying to write a simple Visual Basic 2008 installer that copies word macro templates to Word's startup directory. On Vista and 7, that directory is the user's AppDataRoamingMicrosoftWordSTARTUP directory. Is there a way that I can programmatically find this directory? I.e. is it safe to say that this directory will almost always be in this location such that I can simply get the user's home directory and then add AppDataetc.... or is there a registry or something else that I can access to get Word's current standard startup directory?
