not searching all directory's?

[dNino]

how is it possible that the following isn't working correctly?

Func idx($dir)
    $contents=FileFindFirstFile($dir&'\*')
    While 1
        $content=FileFindNextFile($contents)
        If @error Then ExitLoop
        $names&=$content&'|'
        $dirs&=$dir&'|'
        If FileGetAttrib($dir&'\'&$content)='D' Then
            If Not StringInStr($dir,'\') Then
                MsgBox(0,'dir',$dir&'\'&$content)
            EndIf
            idx($dir&'\'&$content)
        EndIf
    WEnd
    FileClose($contents)
EndFunc

thanks to that msgbox() I know that it only searches:

- c:\windows

on the c drive and

- d:\Documents and settings

- d:\Windows

on the d drive.

while I have other directory's on both drives...

I don't see an edit-button, maybe because its the first post in a topic...

I've tested it on a diverend notebook, wich has windows XP, here it works...

I have windows Vista.

Someone know a solution?

You didn't say exactly what you are passing into the function call for $dir.

[dNino]

all fixed drives

so c: and d: in my case.

Hi,

t$dirs&=&dirs&'|'oÝ÷ Û*.æ§jëh×6t$dirs&='|'

maybe ?, Randall Edited July 21, 2007 by randallc

"If FileGetAttrib($dir&'\'&$content)='D' Then" is a problem. It should be more like...

If StringInStr(FileGetAttrib($dir&'\'&$content), 'D') Then

Just to clarify, the reason to do it like that is because, say a directory is also read only and maybe set to archive, then FileGetAttrib will return something like 'RAD.'

Thank you, it's working
