Hi

I know this is an RB list but I recently had difficulty getting this right in VB6, and this might be of help. Firstly, MS's own VB code example does not work - it is at:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;185476


A corrected calculation is at :

http://www.freevbcode.com/ShowCode.asp?ID=6836

It is using a WIN32_FIND_DATA structure, but the size issues/fields are much the same.

I know this is VB code but I don't want to start a "this is RB not VB list" shouting match please - I am just trying to help. And no, I haven't converted the Declares to RB - sorry - not good at Declares :)

Is there a way to get a file size that is bigger than an integer?

I'm trying to monitor a file's size that is > 13G.

Platform: Windows XP/ RB 2005
