Hi!

I as wondering if anyone has an alternative to the FILE
and DIRECTORY commands maybe an API call is better??? The problem is in our applications we have a lot of external sketches on various servers
and it can be quite slow to run the FILE or DIRECTORY commands on server
drives... (Especially if the file is missing or something...)

For example if i run the command:

DIRECTORY('T:\myfolder') and T: is not connected because e are offline
it takes a long time to return .F.!
also
FILE('\\myserver\myshare\myfile.cnv') seems to take a long time when the file
is not there..

Thanks
