GetDiskFreeSpace

[Xavier Valdés]

Hi all,

I wanted to catch freespace of a net resource (i.e. \\pc\resource) but
without
having >2GB problem... Anyone knows how to do that? In VB6 we had
LARGE_INTEGER type
to use with GetDiskFreeSpace api function but I don't know how to do that in
VB.NET (and I don't
know if it's the easiest way in .net). By the way: I DO NOT WANT TO MAP UNIT
so I would like
to know \\pc\resource 's available space (not z.
Thanks a lot,
Xavier Valdés

I think you refer to 'GetDiskFreeSpaceEx'. You can declare the parameters
as 'Int64' (a.k.a. 'Long').
