Populate a table with a directory's file info.

I use this SP to return full directory information into a table.  FilePath, FileName, Filedate and FileSize are parsed from a 'dir /n/on/-c ' command. FilesInDir is the table created. usage: exec LoadFileDetailsIntoTable 'c:\winnt'select * from FilesInDir where filesize > 100000select min(fileDate) from FilesInDirThe Return Code will equal the number of files found.
