Hi...

How can i get the path of a file just knowing the file name???

I have tried the following:

string xpath = Path.GetFulPath("MyImage.JPG");

But i doesn´t give me the right path...

Well, if you think about it, there could be any number of files called "MyImage.JPG" on your system in different folders. This is a matter of not giving enough information to get what you want.
