Does this method for getting drives work for anyone?

[ImOk]

WHen I run this under Windows I get the Count of drives but then I get
an error message on the Reset() when I try to enumerate. Does this work
for anyone?

$fs = new COM("Scripting. FileSystemObjec t");
$drives = $fs->Drives;
echo $drives->Count;
$drives->Reset();
while($drive = $drives->Next()) {
echo $drive->VolumeName;
}


2PHP Stack trace: PHP 1. {main}() C:\PHP5Apps\PHP X\fso.php:0 PHP Fatal
error: Call to undefined method variant::Reset( ) in
C:\PHP5Apps\PHP X\fso.php on line 5

I think it was I who posted that fragment. The code only works in PHP
4. In PHP 5, you just enumerate $drives as though it's a regular array.
Hence:

$fs = new COM("Scripting. FileSystemObjec t");
$drives = $fs->Drives;
foreach($drives as $drive) {
echo $drive->DriveLetter;
}

I had tried the enumeration later and it worked fine. But thanks anyway.
