>I have a form that the user inputs a zip file name and presses a continue button. The program then runs a DynaZip routine. If the user selects a drive that is "removable media" I want to include the multivol parameters. Right now I just check for an 'a' or 'b' in the drive designator. This is fine except for those cases where a user might have say a zip drive at 'd'. Is there a way in Foxpro to tell if the target drive is "removable"?

Hi Robert,

In VFP 6.0 there's the DriveType() function. In pervious versions, this function was available in Foxtools. You call the function with:

lnresult = DriveType('C:') && or other drive letter

In either case, if the return value is 2 it's a floppy; 4 if it's a removable or network drive.
