help with Dir, Drive and FileList

[Navarone]

I just did that, and it didn't blow up anywhere. When I am done adding and clear all, I set the Drive,Dir, and FlieListBox visible property to false, and I use a check box, to make them reappear. So the check box is setting the visible property true or false. Could that have anything to do with not showing up. I'm really stumped. Would I need to reset the File1.pattern ?

I can't see how toggling the visible property of these controls would affect, either postively or negatively, the pre-established pattern. After you clear everything, pop up a message box to display File1.Pattern to see what that is after you have done a clear all.

If it somehow got changed, then in your checkbox that toggles them back to visible, reset the pattern and see how that works.
