Hi Bernie,
Both of those come with RBase 7.6. I could not figure out how to use them to get a list of file names into a table in a single step. Is there a way to use these plugins to retrieve a filename (even one at a time, then I could use them within a loop to get each filename) without the user having to click on each filename?
Any thoughts on why my method fails during a trace but does just fine during a run?
Mike

The method I am using seems to work just fine when I run the command, but fails (nothing loads into the table) while I am doing a trace. The program is run from within an EEP. Here is my code....ERASE dir.txt
OUTPUT dir.txt
DIR .vfromspec
OUTPUT SCREEN
DELETE FROM asciitxt2
LOAD asciitxt2 FROM dir.txt AS FORMATTED USING textdata 1 80
EDIT ALL FROM asciitxt2The contents of dir.txt is as follows....
Volume in drive g is 320GB
Volume Serial Number is 8464-4871Directory of g:\docs\1913\labs\02/20/2010 10:43 PM <DIR> .

2 Dir(s) 28,672,167,936 bytes freeWhy won't this work for me during a trace? Is there a better way to load a list of filename from a folder into a table?Mike
