volume serial number

Post by churchken »

Hi, Folks,

Other than using a shell command, is there a way to "get" the volume serial number from some system information source?

" the Volumes" returns the list of available volumes, but does not include volume serial numbers.

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Hi Ken,

There might be another way, but it won't be vanilla LiveCode scripting.

Kind regards,

Mark & Klaus,

Thanks for the comments.

I already use the "shell" command to obtain the serial number but wondered if there was a "direct access" call to the system information via LiveCode.

Regards,
Ken
