Bernie, Here is a link to a plugin that will do it:
www.byerley.net/FileCount.zip set a variable to TYPE TEXT Call the Plugin with TWO arguments. The First is the Full Path of the Folder to be searched. The Second is the File EXTENSION to search for. The extensions are any VALID FileSystem Extension including ? and * Characters. To look for multiple extensions at once, separate the EXTENSION with the pound '#' Character. This rules out any File Extension that Contains a pound character in the search. EXAMPLES: plugins Filecount.rbl vtext|c:\program files\borland\delphi7|*.txt#*.rtf plugins Filecount.rbl vtext|c:\program files\borland\delphi7|*.* plugins Filecount.rbl vtext|c:\program files\borland\delphi7|*.ABCD ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bernard Lis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "RBASE-L Mailing List" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, May 14, 2008 11:26 AM Subject: [RBASE-L] - Counting Number of files in a folder > How can I retrieve the number of files in a given folder? > > Bernie Lis > > >
