'*************************************************
'* This example is for reading/setting file *
'* attributes. It also is an example of how *
'* to read file names from the disk. BC 7.1 *
'* and VB DOS all support the DIR$ function, *
'* but QB does not, so we will low-level code *
'* our own DIR function and call it READDIR *
'* *

'*************************************************
'We use interrupt 21H and the following functions:
'
' 1AH : Set DTA address
' 43H, Subfunction 1 : Set file attributes
' 4EH : Find first matching file
' 4FH : Find the next matching file
