Getting File Size

[Titan]

How would I go about finding the file size of a file that I have the full path to.  Like, "C:\Program Files\Program\Documents\mydocument.doc"?  I tried the nice macro provided by the masm32 package:):

Code Select Expand


invoke filesize, addr FullPath
mov FileSize, eax
invoke dw2a, FileSize,addr StringBuf

It doesn't seem to be working.  I think the filesize function only works with a file name and won't accept the full path?  Perhaps someone could clear this up and/or point me to a way for me to accomplish this with the full path.

Thanks a lot,
Mike

Hi Titan,

There is likely something else wrong.  Here is a small test piece that uses the procedure from the MASM32 library.

Haha, thank you hutch!  It turns out my code was perfectly fine, but I did not insert it in the right procedure... :red

Always the little things that get you. :P
