I made this post and lost it some how, I try again - sorry...

I tried @volinfo( and @file( to detect my memcard volume.
But I get a MS drive not ready type error.

Does anyone know how to get around this error?

What I meant to say was, I need to detect if my memory stick is inserted in the USB2 memcard reader.
I want my DriveDetector program to to tell me when I left it inserted so I can pull it out while online.

I seen this at a website, dont know if its anyhelp detecting.
You can use the RequestDeviceNotifications() API with P/Invoke

Heres the error I get:

I tried some experiments in the DOS box but they bring the same ugly dialog up.

I found a good answer thanks to CodeScript and his FileFolderTouch DSU.

Below is smooth with no popup error box, make sure the file is on the MemCard:

For a similar task (and primarily to getting some text to the table Very Happy

) I use this code:

Dont know Dave®
Mine has 2003 creation date with little readme information:

File/Folder Touch XP By CodeScript
===============================
This is a example showing how to get information and change file and folder date time.
Said to be a little more difficult on NT based operating systems this example does that using API.
Please note that this example as such doesn't work on win 9x.

If you don't want to deal with directories then use the built in VDS commands:
@FILE(<file description>, T)
and
FILE SETDATE, <file path>, <time>, <date>

However it may not set all the 3 attributes seperately.

Here are the commands and functions available in this DSU :

Get File/Folder Date time Info:
=========================
%A= @FILEINFO(GET,CREATED,%F)

%A= @FILEINFO(GET,MODIFIED,%F)

%A= @FILEINFO(GET,ACCESSED,%F)

where %F is the path of the file or directory to obtain info.

Set the File File/Folder Date time Info:
========================================

FILEINFO SET,CREATED,%F,Date,Month,year,hour,min,sec

FILEINFO SET,MODIFIED,%F,Date,Month,year,hour,min,sec

FILEINFO SET,ACCESSED,%F,Date,Month,year,hour,min,sec

where %F is the path of the file or directory to be modified.

Win 9x version may be easier but I never tried one for it. Because I am not currently using it. Sorry.

Disclaimer:
===========
The unit uses windows API. Use at your own risk.

Enjoy.
