OT - any VB programers out there?
 

Curses I know this should be easy but.... I'm looking for a way in VB that I can get a list of all the Race names for my modding program. In other words get a list of all the directories in the \Pictures\Races folder and then pass them to a string array. Anyone got any tips?

Use the Dir$ function repeatedly, each use brings up the next file or directory in a directory.

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif I been messing with Dir$ for Last half hour can't make it do anything but return first file name: ie This code strDirName is always equal to "DataFileHistory.txt" which is the first file in the SE4 base direcottoy. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

strDirName = Dir$(strBaseDir + "\")
strDirName = Dir$()
strDirName = Dir$()
