Shifting bits

hi there,

Shifting bits - is it possible on VB ?
cause i execut the API GetLogicalDrivers that return value is a bitmask representing the currently available disk drives. Bit position 0 (the least-significant bit) is drive A, bit position 1 is drive B, bit position 2 is drive C, and so on.

i want to know which 1 of the bits is "on" and which 1 is "off" , and the only way i know is by shifting bits.

my questions are :
1. is it possible shifting bits on VB
2. if not , how can i get all the logical drivers.

thanks ,

I am not aware of a VB bitshift command but you could just divide by 2 to shift right.

Code:

---

Option Explicit
Dim a As Byte

Private Sub Command1_Click()
 
  a = a / &H2
  Debug.Print a
  If a And &H1 Then
    Debug.Print "bit 1 is set"
  Else
    Debug.Print "bit 1 is clear"
 End If
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()
  a = &H8
  Debug.Print a
End Sub
