Hi,

Can anyone point me at code which would recursively read files in directories as well as sub-directories. Recursion is necessary but I need a kick-start...

TIA

Larry

It doesn't have recursion but it does have all the API functions you would need to get a list of files & folders.

It would be easy to make a version where of_getfiles called itself whenever it found a folder.

I have used this free code sample several times at different companies as a great starting point for generic solution. Looking back it turned out "generic" was slightly different at each company.
