I have a MS Access database that uses the Shell command to run a batch
file that XCOPYs a file.  I know that a number of the DOS commands are
no longer available in XP and Windows 2000.  Is there a way to test to
ensure that the user has inserted a floppy disk as part of the DOS batch
file?  If not, is there any easy way to test this in Access before
calling the batch file?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, John

Can you use the internal access commands to copy the files.  Here's the
psudo code I'd use:

1.  Read the files from the disk into an array using the directory command

2.  If I get an error throw an message and quite.
If not then For Next through the array using the filecopy command.

Good luck.
