Hi! Can anyone please tell me how to get the size of a file? Thanks

you can try :

long filelength(int file_handle )
where file_handle=fileno(ptr_file)

The header to declare with is stdio.h. But warning! this function is not ANSI C.
Hope that help!

I''ll try it.

Thanks for your help!

Here''s another way of doing it...

FILE* f = fopen("whatever.ext", "rb");
fseek(f, 0, SEEK_END);
int size = ftell(f);
fclose(f);
