- The dynamic link library contains two functions and the third is in
- LBLTOOLS.BAS.
-
- These three functions are:
-
- ClearLabel
- SetLabel
- GetLabel
-
- which collectively allow you to read, delete and write diskette and
- hard drive volume labels. This functions come in handy when you want to:
-
- ■ Detect a Diskette Change
- ■ Label a Diskette or Drive
-
- The syntax below demonstrates how to declare the DLL functions so you can use
- them. However if you simply modif the path and add lbltools.bas to
- your project all of this has been done for you.
-
- Declare Function ClearLabel Lib "LBLTOOLS" (ByVal drive As String) As Integer
- Declare Function SetLabel Lib "LBLTOOLS" (ByVal labelName As String) As Integer
-
- The third function is defined in LBLTOOLS.BAS.
-
- Public Function GetLabel(drive As String) As String
-
- GetLabel = Dir(drive, &H8)
-
- End Function
-
- To write a disk label simply delete the existing, for example
-
- ClearLabel( "A:\" )
-
- and then call SetLabel( "A:\LOOPY" ). Don't forget the drive letter with the
- label name.
-
