Getting all file names from a folder using C# [duplicate]

using System.IO;

DirectoryInfo d = new DirectoryInfo(@"D:\Test"); //Assuming Test is your Folder

FileInfo[] Files = d.GetFiles("*.txt"); //Getting Text files
string str = "";

foreach(FileInfo file in Files )
{
  str = str + ", " + file.Name;
}

---

using System.IO; //add this namespace also 

string[] filePaths = Directory.GetFiles(@"c:\Maps\", "*.txt",
                                         SearchOption.TopDirectoryOnly);

It depends on what you want to do.

ref: http://www.csharp-examples.net/get-files-from-directory/

This will bring back ALL the files in the specified directory

string[] fileArray = Directory.GetFiles(@"c:\Dir\");

This will bring back ALL the files in the specified directory with a certain extension

string[] fileArray = Directory.GetFiles(@"c:\Dir\", "*.jpg");

This will bring back ALL the files in the specified directory AS WELL AS all subdirectories with a certain extension

string[] fileArray = Directory.GetFiles(@"c:\Dir\", "*.jpg", SearchOption.AllDirectories);

Hope this helps

Does exactly what you want.

System.IO.Directory.GetFiles

Take a look at Directory.GetFiles Method (String, String) (MSDN).

This method returns all the files as an array of filenames.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.directory.getfiles.aspx

The System.IO namespace has loads of methods to help you with file operations. The

Directory.GetFiles() 

method returns an array of strings which represent the files in the target directory.

I would recommend you google 'Read objects in folder'. You might need to create a reader and a list and let the reader read all the object names in the folder and add them to the list in n loops.
