I think you're right; DIR was designed for DBFs first. Use ADIR() instead.

Subject: DIR command output????

Is there any way to make the output from the DIR command show more information about the files in the current directory? I would expect to see output much like the real DOS command where it shows columns of information that include the filename, date, and file size in a vertical flowing format.

It seems that the DIR command in FoxPro is designed to work with DBF files be default, and it does show more info about those files.
