Changes the current directory.

Declaration:

procedure ChDir(S: String);

With {$I-}, IOResult returns an error code if an error occurred, otherwise IOResult is set to zero. The current directory is changed to the path specified by S. If S specifies a drive letter, the current drive is also changed.

Example:

{$ifndef __CON__}
  This program must be compiled as console application only
{$endif}
begin
  {$I-}
  ChDir('MyDir');
  {$I+ }
  if IOResult <> 0 then  
    WriteLn('Directory does not exist');
end.
