except for _lopen which differs a bit from CreateFile, but why not using ReadFile, WriteFile, CloseHandle... A+
After consulting some doc, it seems CreateFile is actually easier to use than _lopen, if only trivially so, due to the layout of the flags. Also, _lopen is officially depreciated.
So, I am mostly stealing from msvcrt, and omitting several features SetupIterateCabinet probably won't need. So far, it has proven most painless, consuming approximately 100 lines of code (although it is untested so far). Thanks for your advice.
