Use the
AddString()method. If you are not using MFC, then send the control aCB_ADDSTRINGmessage.

If you want to get the files also you need to use
FindFirstFile()andFindNextFile(). A quick example of FindFirstFile straight from MSDN#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0400 #include #include int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { WIN32_FIND_DATA FindFileData; HANDLE hFind; printf ("Target file is %s.\n", argv[1]); hFind = FindFirstFile(argv[1], &FindFileData); if (hFind == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) { printf ("Invalid File Handle. GetLastError reports %d\n", GetLastError ()); return (0); } else { printf ("The first file found is %s\n", FindFileData.cFileName); FindClose(hFind); return (1); } }Ant. -

Sorry David my post was not meant as a critisism of yours. Since English is quite ambiguous I thought I would fill the possible missing part :) Ant.
