1.1       root        1:  Sample: Walking a Directory Tree
                      2: 
                      3: Summary:
                      4: 
                      5: A demonstration of how to recursively find all
                      6: subdirectories under the current working directory is
                      7: available in a sample file named WALK.
                      8: 
                      9: The WALK sample can be found in the \Q_A\SAMPLES\WALK
                     10: directory.
                     11: 
                     12: More Information:
                     13: 
                     14: Starting with the current working directory, a call is made
                     15: to the Walk function which will find all subdirectories in
                     16: the current working directory. When a subdirectory is found,
                     17: the current working directory is changed to this
                     18: subdirectory and another, recursive call is made to Walk,
                     19: which again will find all subdirectories in this new current
                     20: working directory. Once all subdirectories for the current
                     21: working directory have been found, the current working
                     22: directory is changed up one level (..). When the original
                     23: current working directory is re-entered, then the recursive
                     24: process stops.
                     25: 
                     26: The following is a list of the Win32 API functions used in
                     27: this sample:
                     28: 
                     29:    FindFirstFile  GetCurrentDirectory  SetCurrentDirectory
                     30: 
                     31:    FindNextFile   GetFileAttributes
