Try this code:
TCHAR volumeName\[MAX\_PATH\]; DWORD volumeSerialNumber; DWORD maxNameLength; DWORD fileSystemFlags; TCHAR systemName\[MAX\_PATH\]; // get the volume information for drive C GetHDDserialNo = GetVolumeInformation(\_T("c:\\\\"), volumeName, MAX\_PATH, &volumeSerialNumber, &maxNameLength, &fileSystemFlags, systemName, MAX\_PATH);Nobody can give you wiser advice than yourself. - Cicero .·´¯`·->Rajesh<-·´¯`·.

Because you have UNICODE enabled, so a lot of functions from the Win32 API expect strings in UNICODE and not in ANSI. I suggest you search for articles on that subject here on codeproject, it is a bit broad to explain in one single post.

Actually, you are a genius. Only geniuses swap not adjacent characters in a word the way you did. :laugh:

Oh no, you reverted to common-man adjacent characters swapping! :sigh: :)
