Hi,

Here is the code to found the storage directory :

Dim rootDir As DirectoryInfo = New DirectoryInfo("\")
Dim attrStorageCard As FileAttributes = (FileAttributes.Directory Or
FileAttributes.Temporary)
Dim fsi As FileSystemInfo
For Each fsi In rootDir.GetFileSystemInfos()
If ((fsi.Attributes And attrStorageCard) = attrStorageCard) Then
fsi.FullName
End If
Next

It's wok perfectly, but is it possible to differenciate the permanent
memory(the path of my PPC is "\iPAQ File Store") and the other
strorage directory (SD card for example) ?

As far as I know it's not possible.

Well, yes it IS possible, and it works perfectly on both PPC and Smartphone:

//--------------------------------------------
private const System.IO.FileAttributes attrStorageCard = System.IO.FileAttributes.Directory
|System.IO.FileAttributes.Temporary;


DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(strYourFolder);
if ((di.Attributes & attrStorageCard) == attrStorageCard )
{
// if here, strYourFolder is a storage card root
}
else
{
// if here, it's not a storage card root
}

Let me know if you have any Q's

Hope it helps,
Andrey
 
It is not possible without hardcoding the names of the storage.
What if you don't know the name?

Thx...Alex
