    diskfree question

    ok, I don't get it. when I do the properties of a cdr that has not been
    closed yet, it displays accurate disk free and disk total. but when I use
    this common code (even in C-Builder which I use), I get 0KB.

    __int64 AmtFree = DiskFree(0);
    sprintf(freestrng,"%I64d KB free\0", AmtFree/1024 );

    fixed drives and cdrw's seem to work fine.

    can anyone tell me where windows gathers the information.

    thanks,

    ps: I am changing the current directory to the drive first.
