The Dir way :

[vb:1:e2e25a1922]'Just add a listbox (List1)

Private Sub ListFiles(strPath As String, Optional Extention As String)
'Leave Extention blank for all files
Dim File As String

If Right$(strPath, 1) <> "\" Then strPath = strPath & "\"

If Trim$(Extention) = "" Then
Extention = "*.*"
ElseIf Left$(Extention, 2) <> "*." Then
Extention = "*." & Extention
End If

File = Dir$(strPath & Extention)
Do While Len(File)
List1.AddItem File
File = Dir$
Loop
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()
ListFiles "C:\", "txt"
End Sub[/vb:1:e2e25a1922]
