Path: String;
begin
SHGetSpecialFolderLocation(Form1.Handle,CSIDL_STARTMENU,MyITEMIDLIST);

end;
{END CODE}
This code displays the path to the start menu.
You can get directly to the Start UP subfolder using the CSIDL_STARTUP value
instead of CSIDL_STARTMENU.
Many special folders can be found this way, check out the help in the WinAPI
help on this.
