USB memory

Hi,

I wonder how you can search through all drives (a:, b:, c: etc) and then
especially, if the drive exists, how to find out if it is a USB memory drive
or not. I am using MSVC++ 6.0.

Thanks in advance,
Joachim

Check the docs for GetLogicalDrives() followed by GetDriveType().
and then especially, if the drive exists, how to find out if it is a
USB memory drive or not.


I suggest you post again in the kernel group if no one responds here.

Regards,
Will

microsoft.public.win32.programmer.kernel

You can get it from nntp://news.microsoft.com if your news provider doesn't
carry it.
