Client as in Flex app running in the FlashPlayer in a browser on some machine.
The only filesystem you can access at all in Flex is on a server somewhere. If you want filenames in a Flex client app, you will have to use a server-side process to grab a text representation of some part of the server filesystem, and send it back to Flex. Perhaps I do not understand your goal.

Thanks Tracy. I'm not sure what you mean by client - internet users boxes? I have both the development machine running Flex, and I push the files over to my own in-house coldfusion server. I am in the midst of building the box (old one is waay too old/slow), it's CF7.0.2/Win2003SBS/MS Exchange/MS SQL 2005 - in my bedroom LOL. Is that what you mean by client? Shawn
