Hi All,
I am looking for a utility that displays both the DOS short filenames and the long filenames. Any suggestion?
I have some old software that runs a cnc machine under DOS 6.22 in win98. I create the tool-path files using software that runs under Vista and has file names such as
Holes for square blank.cnc
Holes for round blank.cnc
When I try to load the files in the DOS based software I get the DOS short version of the filenames.
Holes~1.cnc
Holes~2.cnc
All of that works OK, but if the tool-path file is modified at the cnc machine, I need to know which short name refers back to the long name. Currently I search for the changed file, but that can take some time when I have 200 files. The date stamp is updated when the cnc machine closes the files, so all files that day have the same date stamp.
Thanks for any help.
Dave
