Re: Reading Directory and Files

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I don't know if there is some way to sort the files in a folder by date but
you could do this by using Directory.GetFiles and then iterate through the
files and compare the dates with File.GetAttributes(path).

Can someone please tell me how I can get the last file added to a
directory ( I am assuming it is a file attribute). I have built a text
parsing application. Right now I have to manually get the file to load it
up. What I want to be able to do is have the application (on load) check
a directory, get the last file added and parse the file itself. Can
someone please tell me how to do this?

Thanks
Tim
