Randy,

Try this:

DECLARE SHORT GetFileTitle IN COMDLG32;
STRING @lpszFile, STRING @lpszTitle, SHORT cbBuf

lpszFile is the file or directory name you want the actual case for.
lpszTitle is a buffer large enough to hold the information.
cbBuf is the size of the buffer.

For example:

lcfile = "C:\ANYFILE.TXT"
lcbuffer = SPACE(200)
lnsize = LEN(lcbuffer)
= GetFileTitle(@lcfile, @lcbuffer, lnsize)

With directories, be sure to strip off the end backslash if it exists.

hth,

George
