Hi Mike, What calling Lock with a null string gives is the FileInfoBlock pointer (or a pointer to the block is what I mean), and this block will give the info for the current directory. The name will be that of the current VOLUME if the CD is to a drive and not a subdirectory. If CD is too a SubDirectory, then the Name will be the proper name for the SubDirectory, but of course the parent diectory to that subdirectory is not in the name field. I couldn't remember what it was exactly you were looking for and that program came to mind. If that is what you needed, thank Hazy, it is his program! I didn't notice that until after I sent that to you, or I would have given him the credit in my message. So maybe you could tell me how one goes backwards to find the parent directory, though this would be just for curiousity, since I AINT no programmer.. All the best, Kelly
