@dirlist seems to have a limit of names with a length of 32 characters or less. Filenames longer than 32 characters to the @dirlist_filename system array.
What I'm trying to do is determine if a file exists on a Windows file share, but I only know the beginning part of the file name and that it ends in .pdf. I tried using the "exists" command but it doesn't seem to take a wild card. With opendir() I can specify the first part of the name, such as "12-1508*.pdf", and if the filename is less than 32 characters it is found.
I'm running filePro 5.0.14. Does 5.6 support longer filenames? Is there another way to check if a file exists when the filename is longer than 32 characters, and I'm using a wildcard?
Thanks,
Chris
