Hi Richard I see that you are catching up with your emails at the moment. I just wondered if you could confirm that there is a bug in the BDE (all versions) that causes it to incorrectly report the amount of free disk space with drives that have over 2GB free space.
We recently encountered this issue on a clients machine and found reference to a BDE bug caused by Borland using an obsolete API call (GetDiskSpace instead of GetDiskSpaceEX). Do you know if this is supposed to be fixed or if it remains unresolved? We believe it is causing a number of clients major problems (now that they have all upgraded their machines they are running out of drive space). If it has not been fixed is there an official (or un official) work around? Yes I have already searched Google groups etc. This is how I found reference to the problem.
