You could use FindFirstFile()/FindNextFile() and count only files with the FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY attribute. The code could be similar to this[^] Mark

int iCountDir=0; BOOL bWorkingff = Finderff.FindFile("*.*"); bWorkingff = Finderff.FindNextFile(); while(bWorkingff) { if (Finderff.IsDirectory()==TRUE) iCountDir++; bWorkingff = Finderff.FindNextFile(); } Finderff.Close() // iCountDir --Use it now
