Try Directory.GetDirectories[^] - the overload version allows you to specify all subdirectories.

You need me to send you *one line of code*?
You did follow the link I gave you, didn't you?

string[] folders = Directory.GetDirectories(@"D:\Temp", "*", SearchOption.AllDirectories);

I read it :) I really did...

but i had problems...
I made an recursive method

Public Sub Getdirectory(ByVal path As String)

For Each Dir As String In Directory.GetDirectories(path)
Dim podFolder As String

cmbDirectories.Items.Add(Dir)
subFolder = Dir.ToString

Getdirectory(podFolder)
Next

End Sub

Thankyou for your help
