VB Directories

I am trying to write a function for VB 6 which returns an array of every directory in a path. I know that this involves recursive coding, but everything I try returns in error messages and a load of crap.

Anybody who can help me with this, please could you e-mail me @ [email protected]

Many thanks.

Hi,

try the code below. It receives a listbox and the startpath as parameters and fills all the subdirs beginning with startpath in the listbox.

Good Luck!
Roger

Sub readdir(fillinlist As ListBox, startpath)

On Error Resume Next

Dim found As String
Dim paths() As String
Dim pathcount As Long
Dim i As Long

startpath = Trim$(startpath)
If Right$(startpath, 1) <> "\" Then startpath = startpath & "\"

found = Dir(startpath & "*.*")

Do While Len(found) > 0
fillinlist.AddItem startpath & found
found = Dir
Loop

pathcount = 0

found = Dir(startpath, vbDirectory)

Do While Len(found) > 0
If found <> "." And found <> ".." Then

pathcount = pathcount + 1

If pathcount = 1 Then
ReDim paths(1 To 1)
Else
ReDim Preserve paths(1 To pathcount)
End If

paths(pathcount) = startpath & found
End If

found = Dir

Loop

For i = 1 To pathcount
readdir fillinlist, paths(i)
Next

End Sub
