Deepak, You specify the entire path when using VFSDirCreate -- from the "Palm OS Companion" -- "All parts of the path except the last component must exist." With POSE, the card is simulated on your desktops file system. E.g., you may create a path called "/PALM/Programs/MyApp," where "/PALM" is the root directory of the Card. But, you're actually creating the path "C:/Card1/PALM/Programs/MyApp" on your PC. You can drag and drop files to your path on your PC and then seem them show up on the "Card" in POSE. It's very convenient.
VFS programming itself I found to be a big pain, IMO. I don't envy you starting in on this. There's an excellent article at http://www.hhcenterprise.com/Developer/Expansion_1.htm that should get you going.
