Under NT4.x service patch 6 Arev 3.12

Shouldn't DirList return directories as well as files? If I

initdir "C:\tempdir"

AND

lstDirs=DirList()

IF there are only subdirs in the directory I get nothing. If there are files and directories I only get the files ..

Something amiss here .. I saw some 'similar' posts on the other side but saw no answers ..

Is this a Known problem AND who has a workaround? I need to know all directories in a directory.

Thanks

I just did this:

initdir "C:\BACK\*.*"

lstDirs=DirList()

lstDirs contains all files and directories in c:\back

Here is my program .. (using dosbox text mark)

---

initdir "C:\*.*"

lstdir=dirlist()

debug

---

Here are the results

Line 5 'DSIG_BP FOO' broke because the BREAK key was pressed.

As you can see there is no winnt directory etc .. D and H types are not shown (although they do show in explorer

You didn't mention what os you were using or your arev version

thanks

I guess I was not paying attention. I was using oi32 not Arev.
