Comment was not directed specifically at anyone. There was already discussion and no one at the time had provided any code so I said that a folder could be checked in batch (meaning that if batch could do it then KiX could as well and probably easier) and I still say it can be checked with batch if wanted. Is it the best method - NO and I don't believe I or anyone else said it was the best method. Only said that batch could check that folder and I still say it can.

The UDF you provided Lonk is certainly a much more robust and appropriate coding to check on that.

/End for me...
