Search file pairs

[mvvilleza]

Hi all,

Here's the scenario:

I have several files:
file1.ds
file1
file2.ds
file2
file3
file4
file5
etc....

What I want is to list all files with ds on them and same filename without the ds.

Hope This Helps, PH.

Thanks. But it does not answer my problem. I'd like to list all pairs maybe using wildcards since i'm searching for files with ds and without ds.

What are the other possible file extensions?

actually, i just want to seach files with or without the ds. These files have a common extension w/c is .img. We have several files with .img extension and i want to list files of name filex.img and filex.ds.img only (where x is common for both files).

What do you have so far or have you tried? I think what PHV was hinting at is that you will need to start with using the FileSystemObject to enumerate the files in the path you choose.

Put something together if you haven't already and post so we can then help.

Do a search in this forum for FileSystemObject or recurse since looking at files and folders seems to be a very common question.
