APPDATA is a Windows location. You can see where it is by opening a command prompt (DOS Box) and typing in:

Set Appdata

You will then get the location of where files basically should be stored. If you go to the webpage http://www.randem.com/freeware.html (Make Your Application Limited User Compliant) you can download a project that will should you how to programatically get these location so that your app can access the data stored there.

What I like to do is to install all the data into the \Program Files\ folder then upon the apps launch check the Appdata folder to see if the folders and data exist for my app. If they do not exist then I copy the data from \Program Files\ to the AppData location and let my app use that data. I keep the \Program Files\ data as a back up and to use in case another user on the computer uses the app the same thing happens and they have a initialized copy of the startup data in their profile.

Just a note:

DefaultDirName={pf}\Norwin

for better usage. The user may have his \Program Files\ folder else where and in a different language this would automatically translate to the correct verbage.

One problem with your script that I see is that you are deploying a mdb and your rpt file in the \Program Files\ folder. A big no-no on Vista. You should move these files to the APPDATA folder or at least out of the protected area of the \Program Files\ folder.

Try that first and we will go on from there.

Please show what you have in your script. You may be deploying something incorrectly.
