Greetings from Puget Sound DAVID:

On 03-07-1995 you stated to ALL regarding 'DosFindFirst'

DE> Greetings to all, From Electro-BBS first message on the OS2Net.
DE> 
DE> I have been looking for the structure to the FILEFINDBUF, ... 
DE> 
DE> found the following:
DE> 
DE> char FileFindBuf.achName[];  file name
DE> char FileFindBuf.cbFile[];   file size
DE> 
DE> What other parameters are in the buffer? 
DE> How about file date, time, attributes, status?
DE> 
DE> Where is the best place to find help on the various structures? None of the
DE> books that I have goes into a lot of structure detail and C-set workframe
DE> is definately minimal on the help aspect.

If you have the Toolkit installed all the information is right there, I hope.
That's where it is on my system.  I just can't remember if I moved things
around and put it there or that's the way it installed.  I'll assume I DIDN'T
move things around.

Open your toolkit folder then your toolkit information folder.  You should see
a book titled 'CP Guide & Reference', its all there.  Open up +Data Types and
you'll find all the FileFindBuf's.  For the DosFindFirst/Next open +File
Management, +Using File Commands and then Searching for Files.

Good luck,
George
