Hi Following Yesterdays Excellent help i have another Question for the Forum

When i have my dirctory listing I want to display a Window with all the Directories in a particular drive showing so that the user is able to just select the folder WITHOUT opening it so i can capture the folder name to a variable and then pass the variable contents to a PRG.

regards

Rdrunner

Code:
nDirs = ADIR(aDirs,".","D")

nDirs will have the number of folders
aDirs array will hold details about the folders

You can use this array to populate a form/window


Hope this helps

Remember this code will pick the folders from
the current folder (DEFAULT).

Try GETDIR() function:

Code:
my_dir=GETDIR('c:\StartHere\', 'Please select a directory:')
?my_dir
