File Listing in a Form (HELP)

[Michael Kintner]

Hello Folks,

Is there a way in an access form that I could list the contents of a
directory? I want the database to store the directory location and when
clicked show the contents of that directory within the form.

Thank you in advance,
Mike

Well, the form would have to be a continuous form, and to populate it you'd
need to open the appropriate FileSystem object.

I outlined three different alternatives in an article I wrote for the May,
2005 issue of Access Advisor. You can get the article at
