Well, sure. Except that I DO have a purpose. A training session is being run with my app, which I want to be fully functional only if the user has the right token - in this case, a floppy diskette. The volume serial number is the only diskette property not copied by DISKCOPY, which makes it difficult to make more than 1 token diskette for the training class.

Clearly FORMAT under various OSs can set this value, so it is possible; I was simply wondering if it could be done via Win32, rather than resorting to DOS and Norton DiskEdit, etc.
