Syntax

drive
(Input) Character*(*). String beginning with the drive letter.

Results:

The result is of type LOGICAL(4). The result is .TRUE. if successful; otherwise, .FALSE.

Because drives are identified by a single alphabetic character, CHANGEDRIVEQQ examines only the first character of drive. The drive letter can be uppercase or lowercase.

CHANGEDRIVEQQ changes only the current drive. The current directory on the specified drive becomes the new current directory. If no current directory has been established on that drive, the root directory of the specified drive becomes the new current directory.
