Hello,

I wrote along time ago a replacement for dir()
http://www.rapideuphoria.com/dir232.zip

a demo of the work it does can be found here:
http://www.rapideuphoria.com/effm2.zip

my dir() uses all win-api functionality and allows
viewing those infamous hidden directories..

Regards,
Euman

BTW: Glad to be back!!
