Permission...?

[DanG77]

Can someone please point me in the right direction...

I need to find out file / directory permissions for the user logged on... Is this an API call?

Cheers

Dan

An api this ain't but will tell you if you can write to a directory.


Function IsWritable(strPath as String) as Boolean
Dim i
IsWritable = True
i = Freefile
On Error goto bottom
Open strpath & "tmp.tmp" for output as i
Close i
Kill strpath & "tmp.tmp"
Exit Sub
Bottom:
IsWritable = False
End Function
