Finding exact path of 'My documents' folder

[leojose]

Hi all,

This is what I do to find the exact path of 'My documents' folder on any XP machine. But it fails on some XP systems.

CRegKey regKey;

regKey.Open(HKEY_CURRENT_USER,"SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer\\Shell Folders")
regKey.QueryValue(NULL,"Personal",&dwValData);
sMyDocumentsPath = (char *)malloc(dwValData);
regKey.QueryValue(sMyDocumentsPath,"Personal",&dwValData)

Can there be any flaws in the above technique?
