>>Windows 2000 is being installed onto laptops in our office and we have not had an opportunity to convert all out applications to VFP. We have used the FILE() function to determine the existence of a folder using the NUL device reference. This is not working on the Win2000 laptops. We are aware that ADIR() will work but would like to find a way to have the FILE() function work without having to change and recompile our applications. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thankyou everyone for your responses. I think Cetin is right that the only way to do this is to write an .asm . I was hoping that we wouldn't have to do that or rewrite and recompile our code in 2.x to fix the problem. FYI the applications were originally written in versions of FoxPro before ADIR() was available which on reflection would have been the most appropriate choice when we converted these applications to 2.x but heck IT WAS working....
