Hi John, I do that now (I use GetFirst() and GetNext()), but it's a bit slow for my purposes. GetAllFiles is much faster, but my main problem with it is that I can't exclude directories I don't need (for example, .git, .svn and others), and those can be quite slow to scan (due to a large number of directories and files).
For example, when I try GetAllFiles it scans a folder with 278 files (including subfolders, most of these are in .git folder), it takes 0.8s to scan (and subsequent runs only take 0.08s or so). Same folder without .git subfolder takes only 3ms or so to scan (17 files). I'm hoping that the Traverse method would give me a way to do it fast, but also allow me to filter out those folders I don't need. Unfortunately I can't test it without having access to it. Paul.
