Not positive if this is the best Forum to put this in, but I couldn't find a better one, so here goes...

What kinds of file attributes does NTFS and FAT32 have that FAT16 did not have? The reason being is that we have a program that is run off of a network share that is FAT16, and the program does not run correctly. However, if the program is stored in NTFS, it will run.

What kinds of attributes might a program use with NTFS that it can't do in FAT16 (besides the obvious ones like Larger file sizes, longer file names, etc.)

Any info will be a big help. Thanks!
