Location: London, England                Hi all,
I have the following code which came from this forum:

Declare Function GetDiskFreeSpaceExW Lib "Kernel32" (dirname As WString, ByRef 
freeBytesAvailable As UInt64, _
  ByRef totalbytes As UInt64, ByRef totalFreeBytes As UInt64) As Integer
Dim userfree, totalsize, totalfree As UInt64
Call GetDiskFreeSpaceExW(App.ExecutableFile.Parent.AbsolutePath, userfree, 
totalsize, totalfree)


How do I get a TextField or TextArea to display the actual free space?

I tried placing a TextField onto my window and used the following code:

TextField1.Text = totalfree

but I got an error saying "expected String but got UInt64" ?

Thank you all in advance.

Location: Sunny (generally!) Southern California                Since the 
function returns a UInt64, you need to convert that to a string.

Try
TextField1.Text = str(totalfree)
