This article was previously published under Q166505 SUMMARY
The documentation for CFileFind::FindNextFile, CFtpFileFind::FindNextFile,
and CGopherFileFind::FindNextFile in the Class Library Reference with
Visual C++ is incorrect. The documentation states:
Return Value
Nonzero if successful; otherwise 0. To get extended error information,
call the Win32 function GetLastError.
The documentation should read:
Return Value
Nonzero if there are more files; zero if the file found is the last one
in the directory or if an error occurred. To get extended error
information, call the Win32 function GetLastError. If the file found
is the last file in the directory, or if no matching files can be found,
the GetLastError function returns ERROR_NO_MORE_FILES.
