I'm still very much getting my head around how to scope things in C#. I'm SO used to FoxPro

Going where everyone here has gone before!

private static List GetMachinesDirectoryList()
{
   string[] drives = Directory.GetLogicalDrives();
   //String[] drives = Environment.GetLogicalDrives();
   return new List<string>(drives);
}
