Excellent LITTLE extension!

One thing that would be good, altho it is possible with VDS coding, is to have the CD-ROM(s) drive letter(s) in a single command... Just a suggestion... Wink

Thanks a lot!

Aaaah, while I had everything fresh in mind, I added a new function @DiskNMem(DrvType,[drive type to list])

The second param to the function may be HDD, CD, REMOVABLE, RAM,
or NETWORK - only one at a time.

The DLL will return a list of the drives found matching the specified type.

Version 1.2 uploaded.

I found a glitch with 9x systems; I know where the problem lies, now I just need to figure out
how to fix it Wink

I guess there will be a revised version out later today (some time after work).

He-he, I hope the thing is not too buggy.

Hopefully there are better ways to add stuff - e.g. the project may still be open to manageable suggestions...

Sorry, marty! Didn't see your first report at all Embarassed

I will have a look at it sometime later and see what can be found. Sounds like the DLL runs into an exception...
