At what point in the cycle does box try to get the attributes?

I've not got time to dig into this tonight (pile of evil SQL to write

In order to find the file in the first place, surely something like
FindFirstFile/FindNextFile was called? In which case the
dwFileAttributes field in WIN32_FIND_DATA should have what you need.
