Frederic,
Thanks for letting me know about this, I was not aware of it. I am using the Win32 Backup APIs, and this could be the reason, although I can't find that documented (not unusual). I will investigate this as soon as I can (work permitting) and get back to you. I agree that all stream names should be returned, regardless of their size.
Thanks again,
Clive

Hi,
While I am not sure if this is a bug or a missing feature but here is the
question:
It seems that StreamNames() does not return the streams which are empty (0
byte size).
Could you please confirm this ?
Ps: if it is the case it would be nice that the module would list all the
streams.
Thanks very much
