IF you are comfortable with API stuff you could take a look at how to do this with FindFirstFile and FindNextFile
Or you want to do the "Pure" vb way,
1. Have a File List box on a form and make it invisible.
2.ChDir with VbDirectory flag tell you if a file is a directory or not. Using this you can loop thru all the sub directories of a dir.
3. in a loop keep changing the Directory of the FileListbox, and .Refresh, whill will fill the lb with file names.. set the filefilter to *.*
4. Repeat steps 2 & 3.
Roughly that is the outline!
All the best :-)
