The location of the data files (e.g. fluid data, pipe data, user configuration, licence etc.) is, by default, as follows:


Users\Public\Public Documents\Pipe Flow Wizard\


The location of the data files can be modified by editing the pfwizarddata.ini file which is in the same directory as the Pipe Flow Wizard program, e.g.:


Program Files (x86)\Pipe Flow Wizard


To specify a new location for the data files, open the pfwizarddata.ini file in a text edit (e.g. Notepad) and insert the following:


Datapath:<full absolute path for location of data files>


e.g. datapath:d:\mydata\pipeflowwizard 


Save and close the pfwizarddata.ini file and then re-start Pipe Flow Wizard.


The constants defined in the following table can be used within the pfwwizarddata.ini file.  Constants will be translated to their literal values by Pipe Flow Wizard.


e.g. datapath:{PUBLICDOCUMENTSDIR}Pipe Flow Wizard
