C# locate files with various extensions

Question

In a C# 2008 application I have the code listed below to select pdf files from a specific location. string partPath = C:	emp; string strFullpath = partPath + \Docs\; string[] Files = Directory.GetFiles(strFullpath *pdf) .Select(path => Path.GetFileName(path)) .ToArray(); I need to be able to look for other document types like *.docx *.xlsx and *.xls. Thus can you tell me how to modify the code listed above and/or write new code where I can pick records where the last node is either *.pdf *.xls *xlsx or *.docx.

Try: string partPath = C:\temp; string strFullpath = partPath + \Docs\; string[] Files = (from path in Directory.GetFiles(strFullpath) let name = Path.GetFileName(path) where name.EndsWith(.pdf) || name.EndsWith(.docx) || name.EndsWith(.xlsx) || name.EndsWith(.xls) select path).ToArray(); If you just want the file name and not the full path then: select name rather than path
