This program by Martin Packer of Greenford, Middlesex, will place the contents of a disk catalogue into Basic variables. Ideal for incorporating into your own programs so you can keep track of the disk's characteristics. To get the hang of the routine, run it several times with a disk in the drive After a few seconds, variable names, and their contents, will appear on screen Using it in your own listing shouldn't be too hard. Once you have the variables assigned, you can use them, say, to build up a database containing all relevant information on your disks AA |
