>>>>I'm stuck here re-coding some old foxpro stuff. It's been a while since I've written anything other then VFP programs. I'm about to go crazy :-P. Ok, can someone point me in the direction of a function that will return the size of a file? I could redirect the output of the foxpro dir command and parse it into an array or something, but I would really prefer to avoid ugly functions like that.

ADIR() will output files to an multi dimensional array, one which is file size thats the ONLY way!!!
