Access to system and file information (1 Viewer)

[kwbmail]

I don't need a whole lot of detail, but I just need some hints on where to start, and I can probably figure out the rest.

Here's the list:

I want to access information on the system my application is being run on. For example, which drive its being run from, processor type, OS type and version, etc.

Also I'd like to be able to access directory and file information. One example use might be to scan the drive and store all the directory names as records in a table, or be able to read a file name and check that it has the proper extension I need it to have.

Finally, I'd like to be able to manipulate files. Do simple things like copy, move, rename, etc.

thanks
