It doesn't take much effort to type into that little box they call "Search" and then click the button called "go"...

Hi, here is another option
BOOL IsDirectory(TCHAR *szPath) { BOOL bRet = FALSE; DWORD dwResult = GetFileAttributes(szPath); if(dwResult != 0xffffffff && (dwResult & FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY)) { bRet = TRUE; } return bRet; }Best Wishes, -Randor (David Delaune) -

DWORD dwFileAttrib = 0; dwFileAttrib = GetFileAttributes(pathof Directory); if(dwFileAttrib == -1 || (dwFileAttrib & FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY) == 0) { AfxMessageBox("Directory path not exist"); }

What does "validate" mean? Are you wanting to check if it has invalid characters, or whether it exists?

No, just the ones up to the function that you are interested in. All the pages after that do not need to be read, unless you just wanted to.
