Well, since Exist() checks for a specified file, and *.* is a wildcard...
Nothing wrong with the function really..
edit: oh, just realized your point. but that's only if you do a complete wildcard... ( *.* )
Reading the usage instructions you realize that the wildcarding supported is *.file-extension or filename.*
Code:
Exist( )
Action: Checks for the existence of one or more files.
Syntax: Exist ("file name")
Parameters: File name
Identifies the file(s) you want to locate.
Remarks: Supports wildcards.
Returns:
0
File not found
1
File found
Examples:
IF EXIST (@LDRIVE + "\users.txt")
DISPLAY @LDRIVE + "\users.txt"
ENDIF
IF EXIST (@LDRIVE + "\*.INI")
; Etc, etc.
ENDIF
