Description

Returns the drive and directory portions of a file name.

The resulting string is the leftmost characters of FileName, up to and including the colon or backslash that separates the path information from the name and extension. The resulting string is empty if FileName contains no drive and directory parts.

This function works for multi-byte character systems (MBCS).
