Does anybody have an idea why I might be able to write a new file to a network
drive (mapped with ms client), but not be able to turn around and read that
same file? Code snippet below.
fname = Str( ii )
kill fname
f1 = freefile
Open fname For binary As #f1
s_out = ""
For jj = 1 To filesize
' limit it to printable characters
s_out = s_out + Chr( 32 + Int( Rnd() * 95 ) )
Next jj
Put #f1, ,s_out
Close #f1
sleep 1000
f2 = freefile
rslt1 = Open (fname, For binary, access read, As f2)
rslt = Get( #f2, , file_char())
print "result of reopen of '" & fname & "' = " & rslt1
print "len of file: " & lof( f2 )
Close #f2
Print "Rslt of file read = " & rslt
My variable rslt1, which is the result of the open when I'm attempting to read
the file, is returning 2, which according to the docs means "file not found".
The drive I'm writing to is a FAT32 network share, on a Windows XP Pro machine.
The file is created correctly, and I can look at it in notepad from the host
machine, and others on the network. The share permissions are "Everyone --
full control".
???
TIA!
Dave
