Using 7.6, but not sure version matters in this.
I have a directory that will contains files that are
called by the part#, followed by the letter "R", and
then some number that indicates a revision. I want to
launch that file. IE: for part# 12345, there would be
a file called: 12345R3.doc
Of course, I have no idea what the number after the
"R" is. I can think of 2 "low tech" ways of doing this,
but wondering if there's better ideas.
(1) I can do a DIR .../B to a file, load into a table,
but then they're seeing the DOS box.
(2) I can do a while loop to some finite ending number.
Any quicker/better ideas?
LoadFileNamePlusPlus76.RBL, LoadFileNamePlusPlus80.RBL,
or LoadFileNamePlusPlus.RBM (for 9.x) is the eloquent
approach to achieve your goal.
Using "LoadFileNamePlusPlus" Plugin, you may customize
the list of files using the FILTER option.
