Use this
And Implement
yourself

Directory.GetFiles("C:\Windows", "*.txt", SearchOption.AllDirectories)

You can Pass the Drive name through a text box
may this will help you.
Call this on button Click
and Get your Data Inside a DataGridView like

DataGridView1.DataSource = Directory.GetFiles("C:\Windows", "*.txt", SearchOption.AllDirectories)

or Do like this

List1.Items.AddRange(Directory.GetFiles("C:\Windows", "*.txt", SearchOption.AllDirectories))

how can i get the file ?

Karwa_Vivek 11-Aug-11 9:22am

using the Second Command [List1.Items]
you will Get the exact path of your File where it is located.
Go there and get it.And if you want it through the app only ,then
Is better to Post a new Question out there.You know Points Matters
