Get a list of all files inside of a directory in vb.net

How can you obtain a list of files (as a stringcollection or some other storage method) which contains the full path on the user's computer to the files?

Is there a method for doing so?

Solution 1:

It looks like you want to use Directory.GetFiles() in the System.IO namespace.

Docs here.

Solution 2:

Add a Listbox to Windows Form and Add following code on Form Load or other events :-

ListBox1.Items.AddRange(Directory.GetFiles("Your Directory PAth Here"))

Solution 3:

    Dim txtFiles = Directory.GetFiles("C:\Input", "*.CSV", SearchOption.TopDirectoryOnly).
        [Select](Function(nm) Path.GetFileName(nm))

    Dim arrayList As New System.Collections.ArrayList()
    For Each filenm As String In txtFiles
        arrayList.Add(New clsImportFiles(filenm))
    Next
