Where to put files

Targets Web

(One would think I would know this by now.)

Starting a little web app with relatively few potential users. Need to keep some files (a file?) for each user somewhere on the server.

Where is the right place/appropriate folder?

Depends on where you’re deploying. Xojo Cloud limits to just a few SpecialFolders. Otherwise, just like desktop apps, use your own child of SpecialFolder.ApplicationData. That keeps user-data out of the executable location, which is normal practice for any software today.

Tim,

Thanks. Just what I needed.
