Got it!!
Thanks folks for responding here is what i found...
http://tinyurl.com/exm8k
Also here is what I did on my PC - based on my code I removed the
Archive Attribute on all my files - and The system was not able to list
any files - thank goodness I was able to replicate the problem.
Then I decided to put back the archive attribute and low and behold - I
still was not able to list my directory (?????)
Anyway, based on the link here what I did...
....
....
int faAnyFile2 = 0x0000FFFF;
TSearchRec sr;
int iAttributes = 0;
SaveCurPath SaveCurPath;
iAttributes |= faAnyFile2;
AnsiString FileSpec = Site_Path;
FileSpec += fs;
if (FindFirst(FileSpec, iAttributes, sr) == 0)
{
if (!(sr.Attr & faDirectory)
{
AnsiString FileName = Site_Path;
FileName += sr.Name;
strcpy(ftbk[count].Name, FileName.c_str());
....
....
...
This worked OK.
I will need to fax Borland soon to get my Beta and see if these problems
still exists....
