View Files in a folder!

[herpysz]

Hi!
I need to get in my listbox all the files that are in a folder...
How I do that????
Plz help!
Thanks!

There is a control called a FileListBox, and should be on your toolbox by default. Use one of those, and specify the target directory using:

File1.Path = MyFolder$
