finding files in recycle bin with findfirst/next doesn't work

how do i find files (names) in the recycle bin. in my program using
findfirst/next they show up as their original name but when i list them in
DOS their totally different. i can't move, delete, or do anything with
these files since delphi can't find them with the findfirst/next commands.
any ideas?

please reply by e-mail and post

Re:finding files in recycle bin with findfirst/next doesn't work

You are not supposed to be in the recycle bin, although I suppose if you can
find the files with findfirst/next you should be able to use a ShFileOperation
command on the same name/path...
