getting a file list

[Jerry]

Hi!,

I am just starting out in c# here and what I want to do is get a list of
files, list them in a a listBox. I want the to beable to select either 1,
2, ... ALL files in this list and execute a job on them.

Here is what I have so far:

using System;

using System.Collecti ons.Generic;

using System.Componen tModel;

using System.Data;

using System.Drawing;

using System.Text;

using System.Windows. Forms;

using System.IO;

namespace VFSQL

{

public partial class VFFormDataToSQL : Form

{

public VFFormDataToSQL ()

{

InitializeCompo nent();

Page_Load();

}

void Page_Load()

{

DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(@ "V:\Excalibur\T extData");

FileInfo[] rgFiles = di.GetFiles("*. FDF");

lBDataFiles.Ite ms.AddRange = rgFiles;

// lBDataFiles_Sel ectedIndexChang ed( rgFiles );

foreach (FileInfo fi in rgFiles)

{

Console.WriteLi ne(fi.Name);

}

}

private void Form1_Load(obje ct sender, EventArgs e)

{

Page_Load();

}

private void lBDataFiles_Sel ectedIndexChang ed(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

}

private void bExit_Click(obj ect sender, EventArgs e)

{

this.Close();

}

}

}

Thanks,

Jerry

Hi Jerry,

Well, you seem to have managed to display the files in a ListBox. Since
you want to be able to select several files I would drop the
SelectedIndexCh anged event, enable multiselect on the ListBox and put a
Button that triggers the job. When the buttons is clicked, use
lBDataFiles.Sel ectedItems or lBDataFiles.Sel ectedIndices to determine
which of the files have been selected and do the job.

You might also want to consider using a CheckedListBox for user
friendliness (makes it easier for the user to understand that several
files can be selected), and maybe a "Select All" button.

Hi,

Advise , next time you post some code paste it first in notepad , this will
eliminate the empty lines.

Then, what is your problem? What is that you do not know how to do?
basically you have to allow multipleselecti onin the listbox using
Listbox.Selecti onMode = SelectionMode.M ultiple

then add a button and on the click of the button get the selected elemtnts
