FileSize Returns Zero
Question:
I am running WB 2003H (compiler). I have a process that does a filesize() function on a
file that is created by a file copy with explorer from one folder to an other, the file is
very big and comes from a remote machine, so the process is very long. As soon as the copy
begin I can see the final size in the target folder, but the filesize on this file returns
always 0 untill the file is completely transfered. Is an expected behavior ?
Answer:
Yes this is expected behavior for the FileSize function. Use the FileSizeEX function instead.
