I was trying to get a file size for a file, so I tried to call
GetFileSize()
But it produces an error that said it requires 1 parameter, which undoubtedly the iFileID.

But how do I obtain the iFIleID? By using OpenToRead()?
Do I even need it in the first place?

I did called GetFirstFile() before I called GetFileSize(). I assumed that by calling GetFirstFile() first, GetFileSize() will know which file I refers to (first file in a directory), but it seems that this is not the case.

So, how do I get the file size?

Got it solved. Seems like I need to call OpenToRead() before GetFileSize().
The flow is as below:

GetFirstFile()
OpenToRead()
GetFileSize()
CloseFile()
