Description
The VOLUME LIST command populates the text array volumes with the names of the volumes currently defined (Windows) or mounted (Macintosh) on your machine.
- On Macintosh, it returns the list of the volumes visible at the Finder level. Only the names of the volumes are returned (for example "MacHD", "BootCamp", etc.).
- On Windows, it returns the list of the volumes currently defined whether or not each volume is physically present (i.e. the volume E:\ will be returned whether or not a CD or DVD is actually present in the drive). The names of the volumes are followed by the folder separator character ("C:\").
Example
Using a scrollable area named atVolumes you want to display the list of the volumes defined or mounted on your machine, you write:
Case of
:(Form event code=On Load)
ARRAY TEXT(atVolumes;0)
VOLUME LIST(atVolumes)
//...
End case
