Accessing Windows API functions from Delphi

[CrazyScorpion]

I need to know how to:

create / delete directories (folders) with the Windows API from Delphi.

create / delete / move files with the Windows API

Of course, I prefer to do all this within the Delphi IDE, but I cannot find the commands to do so within the help file.

BTW, I'm using Delphi 4 standard.

If you don't know how to do it within Delphi, then the command that allows Delphi to access the Windows API will suffice.

These are mainly in System and SysUtils if you are looking for the "Delphi way", and any reference will describe these, including the Object Pascal help that exists within Delphi ("Input and Output" is a good candidate to start in). If you are looking for the Win32 API way, look at the WIN32.HLP subsection "Files".

If you have more specific questions, please ask them.

It is not possible for anyone to acknowledge truth when their salary depends on them not doing it.
