you could use the dos dir command to get a list and redirect it to a file.
ie:
dir *.* >tempfile.txt
what the dir command would normally show on the screen is now put into the
tempfile.txt file.
you could then load the file in excell or something to trim out the extra
data/columns you don't want.
hope it helps.

Subject: MI MapBasic - Multiple Files
Hi Folks,
I've written a small MapBasic program which imports only a few layers from
a DXF file
into a TAB file. Unfortunately there are about 700 files I need to do this
with and
my program only lets me choose one at a time.
Could anyone give me any hints as to how to get a list of files so I can
stick them in
an array and use a For..Next Loop to do all the files in a directory (if
that's the correct
way to do it)?
Thanks in advance
