FILES Statement Always Displays Name of Current Directory (21809)






This article was previously published under Q21809

SUMMARY

Problem:

When I request a directory listing of a subdirectory other than the current directory using FILES "\subdir", I get the file list for the different subdirectory, but I get the name of the current directory displayed at the top. I expected the requested subdirectory name to be at the top.

Response:

The FILES statement in QuickBasic is behaving in a manner consistent with BasicA and GW-Basic Version 3.20. It is not likely that this behavior will change.
