Well done Derek!
I can confirm it works on VISTA. Looks very similar to the shell solution by
Ken back in Dec 2004 'GetCDName'. Using shell is not a fast solution (takes
about 0.27 seconds per drive and 1.27 for drive A:). A built-in Rev solution
may not be very much quicker, however, and depend on what 'instant feedback'
calls the engine can make to the OS. I mention speed only because I need this
on-the-fly within a mouseMove handler to verify text-based hyperLinks; not
an issue for a one-off test in other situations, of course.
Thank you, but I can't take all the credit. I did get the function from
Ken (or someone else... I can't remember) and I incorporated it into one
of my programs which polls the system every 10 seconds to see if a
target disk is inserted.
I do agree that a more native solution would be nice. I don't like
using shell scripts as there is never any guarantee that they will work
on all systems.
But I am happy to know that it works on Vista... the program I'm working
on will probably be for Windows 2000, XP and Vista.
