current dirrectory question

Hi NG,

how is the current directory determined for a application.
I thought by starting an exe the current directory is where the exe is
located.
That seems to be true in my MainForm.Create, but not for a thread I create
from within there.
If I do a GetCurrentDirectory froom within the threads create I get
"C:\Temp" as the current directory.
Why is that so?

Thanks for hints
Rainer
