VB6 debug temp directory and required files

VB6 Notes
I discovered that when you are running vb in debug mode, the executable directory is C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98

If your application needs to refer to a subdirectory below the executable, you will need to create a reports sub in the VB6 temp exe directory. For example, here is a folder call "Reports".; C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\Reports

A .NET dll expects the reports to be in a "Reports" subdirectory of the executable.
