Hi All,
[Quoted] I have a requirement to produce a form for client use which provides a list of files found in a nominated server directory. The user would then highlight a file and hit a button and various irrelevant things happen.

[Quoted] ie: I want the results of DIR X:/somedir/*.txt where X is a networked drive. I want to call miracle('X:/somedir/*.txt'); and pass the result back to a non-database block. (I must be able to pass the directory as a param)

[Quoted] The only option I can find is a user_exit but the online documentation is sadly lacking. Do you have any useful examples of user_exits? or indeed is there an easier way to obtain a list of files in a directory within forms 5.
?
Thanks
Steve
p.s client is win95, server is nt4.
