I'm trying to get the complete path to the .XLS my VBA code is running
in.

Actually, I just need the directory.... but either would do.

So far, all I'm able to get is the application's directory (where
Excel lives).

??

You can use either

ThisWorkbook.Path
' or
ActiveWorkbook.Path

Be careful using ActiveWorkbook. The ActiveWorkbook can change while your
code is running and might not be the one you expected when you query the
path property.
