The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
The service is probably the best way to go. But there is another way, maybe.
Use EDTF on the parent of the directory - that's the same as option 2 in
WRKLNK.
In EDTF you have several options - 6 will tell you the number of files
and total size. It might take a while, of course, and the service might
be faster.
You can also open to the directory in Windows explorer from a mapped
network drive. You get the count directly when viewing a directory, it
might also have the total size, I am not sure.
In Windows explorer, again, if you are in the parent directory,
right-click on the directory and select Properties - eventually you'll
have what you want.
