    how to view files in a directory

    I am currently trying to write a program that when executed show the files and subdirectories housed within a certain file folder (ie. C:\Program Files\AIM) I was wondering what the best avenue was for this? My current version uses the .NET framework but I am having some issues with that. So I was thinking that there may be some code in C++ that would aid me in this. Thanks

    FindFirstFile() and FindNextFile() should do the job, I know MSDN has an example on it.
