Enrico,

You example works fine because you are previously creating a longname file.

If Silvio does not create it, as he should do, then the Windows API will not work

Test FWH801

Are you using my sample without changes? If yes, do you want my EXE to test there? I'm using latest FWH.

Richard,

You need to have a file or a folder with that name in order to get LFN2SFN() working.

It is a Windows API requirement.

The following sample works fine here: #include "Fivewin.ch"FUNCTION MAIN()    MEMOWRIT( "This is a long name", "Test" )    ? LFN2SFN( "This is a long name" )    RETURN NIL EMG ? LFN2SFN( "This is a long name" ) --> Empty T...

Is CurDir() returning a long filename ?

Yes, c:\program files

The following sample works fine here:

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

#include "Fivewin.ch"


FUNCTION MAIN()

    MEMOWRIT( "This is a long name", "Test" )

    ? LFN2SFN( "This is a long name" )

    RETURN NIL

Richard,

Is CurDir() returning a long filename ?

Hi EMG,

Thanks. I will try it.
But I got Empty.

Ex.
Lfn2Sfn( curdir() )
