 Topic: Dir() problem
Posted: 17 August 2003 at 7:02am |
Hi all,
I've got a little problem. How do I bind a repeater to all files with the extention *.jpg, *.gif, *.png in a directory using the Dir() function?
All other forums couldn't help me, Microsoft wouldn't respond, so you're my last hope!

Allright, no posts...
Well, let me explain it a bit more. I want all the jpg files in the Dir("C:\Path\*.jpg") to be displayed in either a datagrid or repeater.
Why is this so difficult? I mean, I'm a n00b, so if I don't understand things, that makes sence.

i'd look elsewhere

Before going to forums, you should be looking up the System.IO class. There are also tons of articles about displaying images in datagrids.

I know, but I don't want to add or remove data from a database, so the Dir() function is the most simple thing (I thougt..)

i dont know what would be more involved than:
- Getting a list of the files with
Dim aLocalFiles As FileInfo() = (New DirectoryInfo(whatever directory)).GetFiles("*.jpg")
- Looping through that and put into an array
- Bind array to the control
seems like that would work
