programdata

Hi:

I am using mysettings to save user settings.

This config file is saved in this path:

c:\ Documents and Settings \ \ [Local Settings] Application Data\\\

Is possible to change this path? For example, in my case I save app data in "ProgramData" folder (Vista & W7) and I would like save this config file in the same folder. Is possible?

Thanks in advance
