File manipulation

[DaoK]

Hello!
I was wondering how can, take all file in a dir and do an action with some of them. I searched in the MSDN help but I only found that are not usefull like : system("dir"); but I want to manipulate these files not only show them Anyone know a link that I can learn how to manipulate file and directory.

Look up _stat() in MSDN Visual C++ Help for starters.

MFC supports file functions - members associated with CListBox, for example.

Give us a clue what you want to do?

You can use Shell APIs.

I am reading a the link you post about SHELL but it's so big ! and it start to be confusing.

Yes, it's confusing at first but then it gets easier after you know the basics of namespace. Read the introduction to namespace and then you'll hopefully get along fine.
