Best Practice re SDF file location?

I only stick files in (Username)\Documents" if they would be opened or saved directly by a user, say if they double clicked and opened via Explorer. Given its an SDF I'd probably place it in %APPDATA%\(Company Name)\(Product Name).

In the absence of any clear guidance on this issue, I have settled on c:\Users\Public\Documents as the location for the data file. If there is a better location for this file, I'd sure like to hear about it. I'll leave this question open for a couple more days before accepting my own answer.

So perhaps that would be equivalent to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data – joedotnot 3 hours ago.

You should always place any files needed to be freely modified by the user in the Application Data folder. In this case the Common Application data folder which is available to all users. This allows the app to be able to modify this file without requiring elevated permissions.

This is how you get the path to Common Application Data folder. Environment. GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.

CommonApplicationData).

The database file needs to be available to All Users – ErikEJ Jun 15 at 9:22 fixed the answer. – Keivan Jun 15 at 21:29.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
