>how to get number of drives on machine & their types in VFP6

Rajesh,

There are a couple of ways. First, check out the DRIVETYPE() function. Then you could use the GetLogicalDrives() or GetLogicalDriveStrings() API call.

DECLARE INTEGER GetLogicalDrives IN Win32API
lndrives = GetLogicalDrives()
? BITTEST(lndrives, 0)

You can simply iterate through the bits using BITTEST() and any time it returns .T. add 65 to the bit value (0-25).

Next there's the Windows Script Host's Drives object.

oFSO = CREATEOBJECT('Scripting.FileSystemObject')
oDrives = oFSO.Drives
FOR EACH oDrive IN oDrives
  ? oDrive.DriveLetter 
NEXT
