folder

[gmazza]

Hi,

I have a problem:

Using the "list folder" I got a list of files in a folder.
Now I want to read the files in the folder from a specific file.

Can anyone help me?

Is this what you're looking for..?

Not exactly.
I have a list of files in a folder. For example: A.csv, B.csv, C.csv, D.csv (.csv file).
My program have to read these files and I want, for example, it start to read from the file B.csv (so I want to read B C and D file).
I hope I explained well ...

Hi gmazza,

so you have to solve three problems:

Finding all files in folder: done with Listfolder (solved)

Sort the file list: One could use Sort1DArray to do so...

Start at certain entry in list: sounds like a search or compare operation...

Try that on your own and post any results you achieve!

The first two problems are solved (list made and sorted files).
The real problem is the third.
My program creates the path to the folder where the files are stored. Now I have to be able to read the files as I said in my previous post.

I'm back.
Another question: how can I delete part of every element of an array?
Specifically I have the following arry (which I enclose), shown in the list box, from which I want to delete, for each element, the part ".csv".
thanks

Hi gmazza,

look into the advanced file functions. There you will find a VI to strip file suffix from name...
