With the exception of a possible memory leak in case Disk1.Unmount was supposed to free up some resources. And if your app is something that runs 24/7, that is a *huge* problem! Eventually you will run out of memory and the whole thing will come crumbling down (and maybe even cause more damage). -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
