Hi

How can I convert a directory with its content to a FAT16 image file. Is this possible? Eventualy via scripting or WinHex API?

Best regards
Martin

Imaging a directory is impossible as such an image is just a file system stored in a file. The closest to what you might want to do is the following:

Create a partition formatted with FAT16 and of the size you wish the image to be. Copy your directory there and then image that partition. This still images the whole partition, not just the directory, but since there is nothing else on there...
