Its the omission of this information that confused me....

The ff_attrib member isnt documented verywell in the libc-202 
documentation,I thought it only told if a file was H/S/A/R.....

I DID play around with it a little last night though,and figured
out that the ff_atrib member was different for dir's,I just didnt
know if it was a particular bit that was set or a static value
that was returned...but now i know.

I dont know which bit tells if you got a directory,but I do
know how to figure it out....

Thanks for your suggestions.....
