Formatting a Disk through API

Hi, I was wondering about how you format a disk through the API.

I already know how to do a LONG format, but does anyone
know how to do a quickformat?

Thanks in advance.

can i see the long way? maybe i can modify it.

'format a drive
Private Declare Function SHFormatDrive Lib "shell32" _
(ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal Drive As Long, ByVal fmtID As Long, _
ByVal options As Long) As Long


Private Declare Function GetDriveType Lib "kernel32" Alias _
"GetDriveTypeA" (ByVal nDrive As String) As Long

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim DriveLetter$, DriveNumber&, DriveType&
Dim RetVal&, RetFromMsg%
DriveLetter = UCase(Drive1.Drive)
DriveNumber = (Asc(DriveLetter) - 65) ' Change letter to Number: A=0
DriveType = GetDriveType(DriveLetter)


If DriveType = 2 Then 'Floppies, etc
RetVal = SHFormatDrive(Me.hwnd, DriveNumber, 0&, 0&)
Else
RetFromMsg = MsgBox("This drive is NOT a removeable" & vbCrLf & _
"drive! Format this drive?", 276, "SHFormatDrive Example")


Select Case RetFromMsg
Case 6 'Yes
' UnComment to do it...
'RetVal = SHFormatDrive(Me.hwnd, DriveNumber, 0&, 0&)
Case 7 'No
' Do nothing
End Select

End If

End Sub



Private Sub Command2_Click()
' DiskCopyRunDll takes two parameters- From and To
Dim DriveLetter$, DriveNumber&, DriveType&
Dim RetVal&, RetFromMsg&
DriveLetter = UCase(Drive1.Drive)
DriveNumber = (Asc(DriveLetter) - 65)
DriveType = GetDriveType(DriveLetter)


If DriveType = 2 Then 'Floppies, etc
RetVal = Shell("rundll32.exe diskcopy.dll,DiskCopyRunDll " _
& DriveNumber & "," & DriveNumber, 1) 'Notice space after
Else ' Just in Case 'DiskCopyRunDll
RetFromMsg = MsgBox("Only floppies can" & vbCrLf & _
"be diskcopied!", 64, "DiskCopy Example")
End If

End Sub

'Add 1 ListDrive name Drive1

Private Sub Drive1_Change()

Dim DriveLetter$, DriveNumber&, DriveType&
DriveLetter = UCase(Drive1.Drive)
DriveNumber = (Asc(DriveLetter) - 65)
DriveType = GetDriveType(DriveLetter)


If DriveType = 2 Then 'Floppies, etc
Command2.Enabled = False
Else
Command2.Enabled = True
End If

End Sub

Gee, that's the FOURTH EXAMPLE I've gotten from Planet Source Code.

I DO NOT want to bring up the Windows Format Dialog..


Thx.
