hi John mate!
I still require a small bit of code that will let me read the contents of a directory - so i can find all .htm files!



i tried that #include <windows.h>
and used FindFirstFile

but i had no information on the parameters..
so i tried quite a few things - but no joy..
i then did a find for all the header and libry files that contain FindFirstFile..

i got FindFirstFileA, FindFirstFileW - but there was no real information except that there are two fields - and i think the first is an array
?



if you could give me a small example showing me how to do this i would be really grateful
!

thanks
!

Refer to MSDN contained in your VC++ installation
or internet. You need to use FindFirstFile and
Find NextFile to implement it and I think it
is not difficult if MSDN is available.

#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0400

void main()
{
HFILE hFile = 0;
WIN32_FIND_DATA pwf;
hFile = (HFILE)FindFirstFile(&quot;d:\\*.*&quot;,&pwf);
if (hFile == (HFILE)INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) {
printf (&quot;Invalid File Handle. Get Last Error reports %d\n&quot;, GetLastError ());
}
printf((char*)pwf.cFileName);
hFile = (HFILE)FindNextFile((void*)hFile,&pwf);
printf((char*)pwf.cFileName);
FindClose((void*)hFile);
return;

hey John - many thanks for that!

the people in this forum are really helpful - i have now
two solutions to the problem! (the other one uses a dos command )
!

well i tried your programme - i had to change the main
to int main(void)..
and its works!
it printed the first two files on the directory!!
nice one!
i tried to make it read more but didnt quite succeed - but now my mother is here and she wants to go out for lunch , so i must work on this later - im sure i'll do it now thanks!!!

i didnt reconise the code format ? is it C++ ?
!

thanks very much matie!!
