Opening multiple files

Fergal20

Hi,

I have a folder that contains a number of files with the same extension eg, *.txt. I want my program to open all these files.

The program doesn't know the file names. I want the program to enter a loop and read in each file that has a specific extension.

Is it possible to do this? I am using MS VC++ 6. Would suit best if it could be done using fopen and fread.


Thanks in advance

You need to iterate thru' the directory first to get all the matching files. Look up FindFirstFile and related calls in the WinAPI help or MSDN. Once you have the filenames you can open them with whatever method you choose.
