Cheat. Shell out and try wmic logicaldisk where Caption="C:" get caption, VolumeName, VolumeSerialNumber, Size, FileSystem, FreeSpace

That's the command line and you could call wmic from your app and redirect it to some file you read later.

Just tried it.

I'd check out this prior DaniWeb posting to see how to use the system function in Turbo C++.

Your reply reads to me that you want me to write your code. Sorry but that's what you do. I only share how I might cheat with a system call to redirect that to a file then read the file later. You are the programmer. You write the code.
