Convert Folder Names to Text

2 New Member
I've been trying all day to get something to work, but I've not been doing too well.

What I want to do is make a program that lets you select multiple files, and then it will add all of the file names into a list in a textbox. Ideally, it would include files in sub-directories.

As I have already mentioned, I spent a long time scratching my head over how it can be coded and I'm at the stage of admitting I can't work it out.

If anybody can help me, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,

Dave

This is a tool I have made for working with files and folders.

It uses an OCX from CCRP for folderview (included in attachment).

Sorry but some vars and texts are in dutch!.
If You have problems with it, please contact me.

The tab "list" is a tool to list All or Selected filenames in a folder (and , or subfolders).
It even list the files in ZIP files!
You can save or copy the list.

Hi, I am creating a web deployment project. I am getting "Error: Unable to build folder named 'FOLDER_NAME'" error for some of the folders in the Web project tree. I observed that these folders are the ones which have another folder with identical name at some other location under the tree. Is there a solution for this problem? Can I somehow make VS.net to use absolute paths for the folders rather than just the folder names (which might be...

I am interested in developing an online utility that will enable users to copy and past any image (or upload any image on the internet) to the online utility, which will then convert the image to text. The user may "convert image to text" and copy and paste the text displayed into any word document, or send the text displayed to the recipient's email address or can download the text file as a zipped text file that will be presented to...

What's the recommended way to change file/folder names within a project? I want to change the solution name from (say) sol1.sln to sol2.sln, and also everything else named sol1.* (eg sol1.suo, the folder sol1, and within this folder, sol1.csproj, and also, files within Debug and Release folders) Also, how do I change other names (eg .cs files)? I'm using VS C# 2005 Express.

I have used the thumbnail view in my pictures folder for years and it has always shown four images in the folder and the name of the folder beneath it. Today the folder names are no longer there. I'm fairly windows literate and embarrassed that I couldn't figure something out so simple.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
