One of my requirements is that the solution be portable between Ruby and JRuby, which is why I was attempting to do drive detection with File.exists? The JRuby guys have had implementing win32ole on their list for about a year: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-191 but it hasn't made its way up the priority list high enough to be addressed. Anyway, thanks for the win32ole method of doing this - I'm sure that will come in handy. On Apr 29, 8:44 pm, Heesob Park wrote: Try with win32ole: ---
