Hello,

Yes, the sms.ini-file exists on a path on the lan-server at g:\....

I didn't know about file() looking down the path, so I'll take your advice and turn to adir()!

Thank you very much,

Ivo Hubert



>Does the SMS.ini exist in another path? If file doesn't find it at the specified location, it will look down the given paths. I stopped using file() long time ago and used adir() instead. That only looks where you tell it.
