Hi all.
The components list is a wee beauty. It really makes the job a lot easier to
control. Also the system is running very smoothly now. The job was to monitor a
bunch of directories (not just a directory monitor with subfolders selected).
Hence I needed various copies of the folder monitor. My original attempt worked,
but it kept the system too busy and I have never been happy with my boots and
braces programming effort there.
Thanks again.

Next question! How do I determine when the hard disk is not being used. For
example, when there is a change to determined folders, I do not want the monitor
to activate until it has finished working. Tried to use onidle, but the
application.ProcessMessages; or any loop make it busy!
//eliminate double operations by tickccount
tics := GetTickCount;
while (gettickcount - Tics < 1000) or (not IsIdle) do application.ProcessMessages;
IsIdle:=false;
procedure TMainform.IdleHandler(Sender: TObject; var Done: Boolean);
begin
IsIdle:=True;
end;
