Is txt file read-only?

[karlroes]

Hi all,

Using Len(Dir$(txtFileName)) to check if a file exists, can anyone
suggest an additional step to check the Read-Only status of the same
file?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Karl

If GetAttr( txtFileName ) and vbReadOnly Then
' file is read-only
End If

Look up the online help for GetAttr to find how other file attributes can be
checked.

You can also change file attributes using SetAttr.
