Rex,

VFP help for DRIVETYPE() is not entirely correct. Type 2 is not just a floppy but any drive with removable media like floppy, flash drive, thumb drive, etc. See EnumerateDrivesEx() function at http://www.berezniker.com/display/VFP/Enumerate+Available+Drives

>In Windows Explorer, my system shows two physical hard disk drives (C: and D:) and a DVD drive (E:) followed by four 'phantom' drives (F:, G:, H: and I:). When I plug in a RAM drive, it becomes J:, however DriveType('J') returns 2 - floppy drive.

>C - 3 (hard disk)
>D - 3 (hard disk)
>E - 5 (CD ROM)
>F - 2 (Floppy)
>G - 2 (Floppy)
>H - 2 (Floppy)
>I - 2 (Floppy)
>J - 2 (Floppy)
