I am using these functions to find files in my apps path to do a backup. 
IN win2000 server (at just one customer's  site) it fails. Actually it 
does not fail per say it just returns zero files / zero bytes. No access 
violations nothing.....

Here is my code...


//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
struct FilesToBackup
{
     char Name[MAX_PATH];
     int  Size;
};

//---------------------------------------------------------------------------

// fs could be "*.dat"
// Site_Path is where the files are being search from

void TBackupData::PopulateBkupList(FilesToBackup * ftbk, char *fs, int & 
count)
{
    TSearchRec sr;
    int iAttributes = 0;
//   SaveCurPath  SaveCurPath;
    iAttributes |= faArchive;
    AnsiString FileSpec = Site_Path;
    FileSpec += fs;
    if (FindFirst(FileSpec, iAttributes, sr) == 0)
    {
      if (sr.Attr == iAttributes)
      {
        AnsiString FileName = Site_Path;
        FileName += sr.Name;
        strcpy(ftbk[count].Name, FileName.c_str());
        ftbk[count].Size = sr.Size;
        count++;
        //ValidateDate(sr.Name);
      }
      while (FindNext(sr) == 0)
      {
        if (sr.Attr == iAttributes)
        {
          AnsiString FileName = Site_Path;
          FileName += sr.Name;
          strcpy(ftbk[count].Name, FileName.c_str());
          ftbk[count].Size = sr.Size;
          count++;
          //ValidateDate(sr.Name);
        }
      }
      FindClose(sr);
    }
}
