Re: List of files matching a filter expression.

Adrian,

thank you for the prompt answer. I used the functions you mentioned in the 
example. In fact I could only build my example because of that. But I can 
only access one file of a certain selection at a time. Is there a pointer to 
the whole list of files? Say I want to get a pointer to all the files that 
match the pattern *.dat and do the analysis on each one separately. Can I 
have access to that data or should I do it one by one?

Thank you again and sorry for the naive questions.

	Un abrazo,

		Fabio.
