>When you plug your Android smartphone into your Windows computer you have the option of connecting as an MTP or PTP device. MTP is the recommended type and facilitates access to the files on the Android device. The problem is that VFP doesn't have access to those files. Anybody know how to make that happen?
File access is really quirky.
I'm trying to allow the user to find a .csv file. If I use getfile('csv') it will not show the file. But if I do just plain getfile() then I can find the .csv file. The full path gets returned as c:\users\username\appdata\local\microsoft\windows\temporary internet files\blah blah blah
Windows is copying the file that you select into the temp folder. Other files from the phone in the same folder can not be accessed using this temp path.
If you use getdir() you can't see the phone at all.
