What about sys(2000,"t:\jpg\*g*.jpg") ??
E.g. can I specify mask as part of the filename portion for file whith known extension? I don't know how many letters are preceeding, I just know that I may want
55g55.jpg
or 5g5.jpg
or g78.jpg
or gsss.jpg, e.g. the file name portion should contain my mask.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
