    Question

    What is the easiest way to find the size of a file on the HDD? Can I get the 'true' size or just the space occupied (i.e. dependant on block size)

    Use the FileLen method.
    Code:
    iFileSize = FileLen("C:\MyFile.txt")

    You can use use the File System Object to get the size of a file or folder.

    Why use additional components when you don't need to?
