Sheena,

This would be a good candidate to create a reuseable listbox subclass to handle this function. You could then give the subclass it's own array property called FileInfo that you redimension and fill in a method. You'd make the listbow RowSource this.FileInfo. Once the array is filled you call the Requery() method so it'll display the new array contents.
