Which version of Forms are you using?

Search this forum for 'd2kwutil' for Forms 6/6i windows bits and pieces, and 'web_util' for Forims 9/10 bits and pieces.

There is always the ability to run a host command to pipe 'dir' command output to a flat file and then read the text into your fields.

Did you recompile and regenerate the d2kwutil.plx? Did you place the pll and plx in a path that is in your FORMSnn_PATH? Did you read the installation documentation?
