I have here some strange behaviour  of programs under Win XP.   Some of 
the Windows API Function
but also FileSearch() work exactly ast they should on  WIN  98 machines 
but fail  on a XP machine.I have no explanantion at all.

Here an  example I just did for tes treason:

// ----------------
void __fastcall TForm1::Button1Click(TObject *Sender)
{
String LW = "C:\\";
String FL = "OUT.DAT";
String rwS = FileSearch(FL,LW);
Label1->Caption = rwS ;
}
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------

It runs errorfree on a WIN98 but on a WIN XP it allways delivers an 
empty string. Any Explanantion ?
