Directory Files

Question

I have a directory with several files and want to populate a combobox with all of these file names. What class should I use to do this to itterate through the directory?

this might do it: // Only get files that begin with the letter c. string[] dirs = Directory.GetFiles(@c:\ c*); Console.WriteLine(The number of files starting with c is {0}. dirs.Length); foreach (string dir in dirs) { Console.WriteLine(dir); } and also: DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(@c:\); // Get only subdirectories that contain the letter p. DirectoryInfo[] dirs = di.GetDirectories(*p*); Console.WriteLine(Number of directories with a p: {0} dirs.Length); // Count all the files in each subdirectory that contain the letter e. foreach (DirectoryInfo diNext in dirs) { Console.WriteLine(The number of files in {0} with an e is {1} diNext diNext.GetFiles(*e*).Length); } Happy coding
