recognize how many files are in a folder
Jun 14th, 2009, 11:08am  
Hi

I want to write a program, that among other things should load the latest jpeg file in a specific folder. so if there are several numbered files it should only load the one with the highest number.
but how can i check how many files there are, or which is the highest number. if i just try to load pictures as long as there is one to load it gives an error when it tries to load a number that doesn't exist yet...

any ideas?

I would give the same advice as in loading files from folder... Also found in reading in names of image files an example of usage.
