C#:

string aPath1 = Application.ExecutablePath;
string aPath2 = Application.StartupPath;

System.Reflection
You can also use the System.Reflection namespace to get the properties of your Assembly. Try this VB.NET code:

Dim aPath As String
Dim aName As String

aName = _
System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly. _
GetModules()(0).FullyQualifiedName

aPath = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(aName)

Or

aPath = System.Reflection.Assembly. _
GetExecutingAssembly.Location
