generic load list of strings/images from file &nbs

Hi, I was wondering, if anyone knows how to load strings without always specifying their name by typing it in.
The normal way would be :

String InputFile = "W_09_1600.jpg";

However, the image gets renamed and I cannot retype the name in processing every time as there will be many images.
One way I thought of was to create a text file with all the names of the images, read the text file and get the names. the images are done in another software, so it could also automatically generate the list, but.... Is there a better (more clever) way to do this?
PS: the length of the string does not change
Thanks, martin

You could load all files in a specific folder.
