>If you are creating an installation procedure, which I am doing in VFP, and you need to know which drive letter is the CD-ROM drive, how do you know? Is there a VFP function that determines this?
Declare Integer GetLogicalDrives In win32API
Declare Integer GetDriveType In WIN32API String @cDrvLetter

Local Array aDrvTypes[7]
aDrvTypes[1]="CANNOT_DETERMINE"
aDrvTypes[2]="INVALID_DRIVE"
aDrvTypes[3]="DRIVE_REMOVABLE"
aDrvTypes[4]="DRIVE_FIXED"
aDrvTypes[5]="DRIVE_REMOTE"
aDrvTypes[6]="DRIVE_CDROM"
aDrvTypes[7]="DRIVE_RAMDISK"

lnDrivesMask = GetLogicalDrives()
If lnDrivesMask # 0
  For ix = 0 To 31
    If Bittest(lnDrivesMask,ix)
      lcDrive = Chr(Asc('A')+ix)+":\"
      ? m.lcDrive, aDrvTypes[GetDriveType(lcDrive)+1]
    Endif
  Endfor
Endif
