Hi Billl
Have a look on my rev user space under nijinsky (I need to reregister to
use this so I cant check myself (never understood this requirement from
within the IDE)> Anyway. If you cant see it there go to
www.gla.ac.uk/~rh82p and look for Bob's file finder. This is posibly more
than you need but it should get you on the way.
It have a directory walk routine with filters for filetypes. For all
filessimply use *.*
Cheers
Bob
