Function module to get desktop path

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Is there any function module to get the desktop path?

I have tried using CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GET_DESKTOP_DIRECTORY, but it is not returning any value.

I can't hardcode "C:\Documents and Settings\<<<user-name>>>\Desktop" as some users have their desktop in "D:\Documents and Settings\<<<user-name>>>\Desktop".

Thanks in advance.
