Keywords: disk space GetVInfo drvNum vRefNum Message-ID: <4995@uhccux.uhcc.hawaii.edu> Date: 2 Oct 89 21:26:43 GMT Organization: University of Hawaii Lines: 16 I've got a document open which a user specified with SFGetFile, so all I have to identify it is a vRefNum and a name. I'd like to find out how much free space there is on the drive on which the document is stored (i.e., how much more can I expand the document?). It looks like I want to use GetVInfo, which takes a drvNum as a parameter. If so, how do I map a vRefNum to the drvNum containing it? If not, what's the right way? I bet this is a really easy one, so please email to me and I'll summarize to the net. Thanks in advance. -- Mike Morton // P.O.
