Get List of File Names from specified Directory

HelowWw fellow programmers :)

I have a web application that opens a pdf file. Very simple indeed. However the file name is not known. The file has to be found by first searching the list of all files present in a particular directory. All i want to know is how do i get a list of the file names in that directory.

Lets say the directory is LBS and this directory contains a number of pdf files. All i want to do is get their names.

Also is there anyway to find out the content of that pdf from within the c# program. The aim is to open a PDF file matching a specific date (the easy way is to rename the pdfs and include the dates which is why i need to get the list of all file names) other way is to open every pdf up and search for the date, if it matches then save that name.

Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time and support.
