And if you need to find the other spacial location you can use the
LocateFile$(fFileType) in the MapBasic window.

Replace nFileType with one of the following values:
0       MapInfo Preference file (MapInfow.pfr)
1       MapInfos default workspace (MapInfow.wor)
2       MapInfos colour file (MapInfow.clr)
3       MapInfos line style file (MapInfow.pen)
4       MapInfos 3.0 Symbols file (MapInfow.fnt)
5       MapInfos abbreviation file (MapInfow.abb)
6       MapInfos projection file (MapInfow.prj)
7       MapInfos abbreviation file (MapInfow.mnu)
8       Directory with custom symbols
9       Directory with theme templates
10      Directory with graph templates

So if you need to know where your custom symbols are located simply write
this into you MapBasic window followed by Enter:

Print  LocateFile$(8)

and MapInfo will print the location in the message window.

Please note that LocateFile$() only works in MapInfo 6.5 or 7.0
