Hi,
For these kind of commands (ie file system specific commands) it is
better to use the java classes to handle portability issues so for dir
(or ls on UNIX) why not use
java.io.File.list()
Hope this helps
Karl
(ps please can you use plain text when posting to the list as your html
is messing with my mail tool. Ta :-)
