I use Turbo Pascal 5.5 running under MS-Dos 3.3. How do you read the volume label of a disk? I am working on a directory program but can't seem to figure out volume labels. How can you read hidden files? I'd like to get a count of the number of hidden files and sum up their sizes. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Pete Peter P.
