I don't know any method that will return an array of files. Many methods contains a kind of files collection from which you can create your array.

Up to last week, I was the guy who told to whom ever want to ear it to use FSO (great sample at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q190882) but I recently found a solution where the old DIR statement was a LOT faster. I was in the need of filtering some folders having each a lot of files and using the DIR statement (which allow wildcards) was a lot faster than FSO (that doesn't allow wildcards).

So my answer now is : depending on your process, you may consider FSO or DIR (but I am still the best fan of FSO!).
