Hi George,

Thank for the advise. However, I know of the VFP diskspace
limitation and had use Win32API to solve this problem.
However, what I encountered now is Win95B mapping to
a WinNT4 server folder, with more that 2G of space,
only display 2G of space in the window explorer.

As windows explorer only see 2G of diskspace
even though there are more than 2G of diskspace,
my application also cannot see more than that.

So, from your conclusion, win 4.00.950B will not
had this disk space limitation ?

But, why did the windows explorer reported of
only 2G of space.

Please advise and help. Thank you

>The problem isn't with Win95B, it's with VFP. Both the DISKSPACE() and SYS(2020) functions rely on a function that can't handle drives greater than 2gb either in free or total space. As a result, they can't be relied upon. A workaround can be found in the UT FAQ section.
