But you have to poll regularly for that.. i don't think thats good design and could present user headache, as if floppy is corrupt, it could hang the system!

PC floppy drives have (or used to have) a active low Disc Change line, which went high (1) when the drive was empty and was low (0) when a disc was inserted.
Not sure if/how you can get direct access to that line on Win32, though...
Maybe there is an LVM routine that can be used?
Peace!

Any thing for you sir 
Actaully I tried this for one of my project requirment. I used the ExecNotificationQueryAsync() function with the following query.
HRESULT hres = pSvc->ExecNotificationQueryAsync(<br />
_bstr_t("WQL"), <br />
_bstr_t("SELECT *" <br />
"FROM __InstanceOperationEvent WITHIN 1 "<br />
"WHERE TargetInstance ISA 'Win32_LogicalDisk'"), <br />
WBEM_FLAG_SEND_STATUS, NULL, pStubSink );
And in the notification handler we can check the instance is __InstanceCreationEvent and __InstanceDeletionEvent for any drive arrival or removal. But if you want disk arrival or removal you may need to handle the __InstanceModificationEvent( this one i didnt check ).

use as follows
CTime time;
CString str;
time=CTime::GetCurrentTime();
str.Format("%d:%d:%d",time.GetDay(),time.GetMonth(),time.GetYear());
good luck.

yah good.
one funny thing happened you know,
as per the practice,
after i punch few lines of code in the editor, automatically, my index finger hits the F7 key to build the code and my lefthand hits the escape key to exit the output window.
the same hapenned in my previous post. but when i hit escape, the content i typed got disappeared. again i had to retype the post. thats why you are fast.
you can try out this logic. its funny.;P

Yep, I found this on MSDN as well. But my question is how to assign that time(or date) in CString. Casting is not allow on, LPCSTR. Isn't it

yah first, i didnt specify that line.
but later i thought that, that would also be helpful to you.
any way.
solved or not?

Yep, the code seems work fine. But the thing is I can't use it directly on a message box as follows. May be my effort can be silly.
<br />
AfxMessageBox(c_Date.Format("%d:%d:%d", c_Time.GetDay(), c_Time.GetMonth(), c_Time.GetYear()), MB_OK) ;<br />
