Dir Monitor

ActiveX dll source code & test project which monitors a directory for changes. It will watch for files being added or deleted, and changes in attributes or size, and raise an event when a change occurs.
I have not used any api calls for this, so there ARE more efficient ways to write this code.
I needed to get it done, and was having too much trouble with the api calls working smoothly.
I don't care if you vote, but would really appreciate constructive comments.
Thx
