The InstaFox copy file behavior


We pretty much covered everything on the product highlight list in the ‚“About InstaFox ‚½ section except for two items ‚ retaining file attributes (read only, hidden, system, etc.) and retaining folder and file name case (mixed, upper, and lower case) of the installed files. The InstaFox developers promote these features because the product is written entirely in VFP and the default behavior of the VFP copy process does not maintain file attributes in the target file, cannot copy hidden files because it can ‚ t find them resulting in an error, and always changes the case of the target file to lower case regardless of the case of the source file. The reason InstaFox has these behaviors is because InstaFox uses the Windows API commands to copy files and set the attributes of the target file based on the attributes of the source file. So now you know the rest of the story.
