Ave, Yes well, I did kind of figure out that I have to scan through contents of a directory, pull up a file list, and then do some kind of pattern matching to narrow down to the files I need. But at this moment I'm kinda struggling with the directory & file functions - haven't really dwelled into those deeply before.
But yes, your suggestions seem more then likely what I'll be hitting at some stage. Thanks.
