HI , I would like to create a mini application that could point at a
folder and then obtain the file properties for each file type within
the folder. E.g. I would like to get the name of a jpg or bitmap for
instance along with the date created and modified. The results then
being added to a list and eventually sent to an excel file.

The bit I am not sure how to do would be the reading of the files and
maybe the best way to point at the folder.

Any ideas would be really, helpful;,

Thanks

Robert

SHBrowseForFolder shows the standard dialog to let user select a
folder.

FindFirstFile & FindNextFile get the file names and file times.
