Yes Michael, this will sort of work. I used the following code:
adir(listone, '*.bmp')
adir(listtwo, '*.jpg')
adir(listthre, '*gif')
adir(listfour, '*.dib')
adir(listfive, '*.wmf')

then I tried:

if aelement(listone, 1) > 0
acopy(listone, newlist)
endif

if aelement(listtwo, 1) > 0
acopy(listtwo, newlist)
endif

etc

but I find that if there is only one record in one of the arrays it does not appear in newlist.
If I leave out the if statements and there is nothing in one of the arrays I get an error message.
I need to be able to find out if the array does not exist so it can skip it.

I then use asort() to sort the names.

Otherwise it works fine.

Regards,
Garry

PS I have to admit that I do not know much about arrays!
