Summary

Directory wildcards used for directory listing.

Description

The Wildcards property is used to limit the directory entries reported during a directory list operation to just those files and subdirectories matching the given wildcard expression. Directory listings are initiated by setting the DirAction property to DIR_ACTION_LIST.

Only one wildcard expression, such as "*.TXT", can be specified. It is not possible to specify composite wildcards, such as "*.EXE *.COM" or "*.* - *.TMP".

If the Wildcards property is left blank, then all files and subdirectories will be listed. This is identical to setting this property to "*.*".

This property can be changed at any time except during a directory list operation. There is no default value for this property.

Example

FTPClient.Wildcards = "*.c"
FTPClient.ListType = LIST_TYPE_SHORT
FTPClient.DirAction = DIR_ACTION_LIST

Note

For new applications use the wildcards parameter in the ListDir method.

"The night before I went on summer holiday we had to make some 'last minute' configuration changes to approx. 300 routers, a tedious job to do manually with telnet. We went along with MS Excel containing a list of IP-adresses to the routers, and the VIT telnet-component. One hour later the VBA-application (small is beautiful) was working, and after another hour all of our routers were updated with the new configuration. I just say a big "Thanks" to you all for a good sleep that night."
