Tony,

I don't use the file system access functions, only direct sector access. The
SD card or USB hard drive really is formatted as a QLW1 volume.

otoh The File Manager (which is a standalone program independent of the
driver) does use the file system access functions to let users move files
between PCs and QLs using FAT16 format media.  This obviously means that QL
filenames are truncated to 8.3, but their headers are preserved.

Those were the two that immediately looked practical.
I thought it  supported only FAT 8.3?  How do you work around that?
