I have an Access 2003 MDB file.
On Form1_Open it creates a logfile on the CDrive. (This is info that I do not wish to store in the database).
But I want this logfile to be invisible to reduce clutter and prevent accidental deletion. So I set the file attribute to Hidden.
But some users (like me) display hidden files. However, most users do not display system files. So I set the file attribute to System.
And here's my question. Marking a file as a System file can't possibly interfere with system operations, can it? I don't want to cause any system problems.
BTW, the name of the logfile is ListOfBackupFolders.Txt
