How to get the File Name by Handle

[Revolution]

Dear Gurus,

I want to get the File Name from a Handle. I had used the FindFirstChangeNotification (), it returns the handle correctly, Now I want to get the File Name from the Handle.

Is it Possible to get the File Name from the Handle. If Possible how to get it.

Pls guide me

I think you understand FindFirstChangeNotification the wrong way.
FindFirstChangeNotification returns a handle to a find change notification object it doesn't return a handle to a file.
See http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/fileio/fs/obtaining_directory_change_notifications.asp for an example on how to use that function.

Thanks for the post! I was wondering about it too.

Just remember that FindFirstChangeNotification does not return a file handle.
