>How do I retreive each file name under a particular directory and add those names to a VFP table?

You can use ADIR() to retrieve the list of files into an array, and then append the array into your table. There are also automation objects like Scripting.FileSystemObject that can make traversing an entiure folder hierarchy fairly easy.

Try ADIR() first; if you want to investigate Scripting.FileSystemObject, install the Windows Scripting Host, and look at the MSDN topic FileSystemObject object. You might also take a look at the Web site http://cwashington.netreach.net/home.htm for some good discussions on scripting and the scripting host in detail.
