Hi i have following piece of code.

When i do:
GetSpecialFolderLocation(Application->Handle, CSIDL_DESKTOP, true)

On WinXP i get "C:\Documents and settings\Me\Desktop"
but on Win98 i get "Desktop"

What am i doing wrong?

AnsiString GetSpecialFolderLocation(HANDLE AHandle, int SpecialFolder, 
bool ForParsing)
{
   // Local variables
   PItemIDList l_DesktopPIDL;
   TStrRet StrRet;
   PChar  P;
   int Flags;
   AnsiString * Result;
   LPSHELLFOLDER IDesktopFolder;
   bool l_FoundRequested;

   // GetDesktop's ItemIDList
   try {
     OleCheck(SHGetSpecialFolderLocation(AHandle, SpecialFolder, 
&l_DesktopPIDL));
     l_FoundRequested = true;
   } catch (...) {
     l_FoundRequested = false;
   }

   if (l_FoundRequested == false) {
     OleCheck(SHGetSpecialFolderLocation(AHandle, CSIDL_DESKTOP, 
&l_DesktopPIDL));
   }

   OleCheck(SHGetDesktopFolder(&IDesktopFolder));

   if (ForParsing) {
     Flags = SHGDN_FORPARSING;
   } else {
     Flags = SHGDN_NORMAL;
   }

   IDesktopFolder->GetDisplayNameOf(l_DesktopPIDL, Flags, &StrRet);

   switch (StrRet.uType)
   {
     case STRRET_CSTR:
       Result = new AnsiString(StrRet.cStr, strlen(StrRet.cStr));
       break;
     case STRRET_OFFSET:
       P = &l_DesktopPIDL->mkid.abID[StrRet.uOffset - 
sizeof(l_DesktopPIDL->mkid.cb)];
       Result = new AnsiString(P);
       break;
     case STRRET_WSTR:
       Result = new AnsiString(StrRet.pOleStr);
       break;
   }

   IDesktopFolder->Release();

   return (*Result);
}
