How could I fill a list using files in a folder?

#1 · July 18, 2021, 1:30 pm

I have a button that save all my variables in a txt file (in a Save folder). And I have a List Object. How can my List show all txt files in my save folder?.

I remember to do that in Neobook, but I don't remember how.

Thank you.

I have been trying with the code of an old Neobook project, and it works fine in Neobook, not in VisualNeoWin

FileList "Saves/*.sav" "Files" "[partidasguardadas]"

[partidasguardadas] doesn't appear in my variable list when I execute that code.

This is the code to save the file:

SaveVariables "Saves\[DayNum]-[Month] [Hour]_[Minute].sav"
ListBoxAddItem "ListaLoad" "1" "[DayNum]-[Month] [Hour]_[Minute].sav"
AlertBox "GAME SAVED" "Your game has been saved."

And this is the List code where should appear the list with the saves files (*.sav).

FileList "Saves/*.sav" "Files" "[partidasguardadas]"

This work well in Neobook.

FileList "C:\Temp\*.txt" "Files" "[txts]"
StrParse "[txts]" "[#13]" "[MyFiles]" "[MyFilesCount]"
Loop "1" "[MyFilesCount]" "[MyFile]"
 ListBoxAddItem "ListBox1" "0" "[MyFiles[MyFile]]"
EndLoop

FileList "C:\Temp\*.txt" "Files" "[txts]"

StrParse "[txts]" "[#13]" "[MyFiles]" "[MyFilesCount]"

Loop "1" "[MyFilesCount]" "[MyFile]"

ListBoxAddItem "ListBox1" "0" "[MyFiles[MyFile]]"

EndLoop

FileList "C:\Temp\*.txt" "Files" "[txts]" StrParse "[txts]" "[#13]" "[MyFiles]" "[MyFilesCount]" Loop "1" "[MyFilesCount]" "[MyFile]" ListBoxAddItem "ListBox1" "0" "[MyFiles[MyFile]]" EndLoop
FileList "C:\Temp\*.txt" "Files" "[txts]"
StrParse "[txts]" "[#13]" "[MyFiles]" "[MyFilesCount]"
Loop "1" "[MyFilesCount]" "[MyFile]"
 ListBoxAddItem "ListBox1" "0" "[MyFiles[MyFile]]"
EndLoop

Thank you. I'll try that.

Finally my old code of Neobook works in VisualNeo Win (I don't know why this works if this is the same code before) . Thank you for all.

FileList "C:\Temp\*.txt" "Files" "[txts]"
ListBoxAddItem "ListBox1" "All" "[txts]"

Does anyone know if the filelist command can be made to work recursively?

Thanks

I think that by itself the FileList command is not recursive, it only shows the files and folders of a given folder.

Greetings.

To do that, I usually use the command line:

SetVar "[Comando]" "[Folder]*.* /B /S > [#34]C:\Temp\List.txt[#34]"
Run "DIR" "[Comando]" "RunOnce+Wait+LoadComplete+Minimized+Hidden" "" ""

Greetings.
