TOI DAY

I need a routine to get all the files in the root dir and all
directories and subdirectories.

For example: I have these directories structure

C:\
Dir1
subdir1
file1.txt
file2.txt
Dir2
Subdir2
subsubdir2
file3.txt
file4.txt
test.doc
test2.doc

and so on

Can anyone help out with the code?

Thanks in advance

Right. Use DirectoryInfo.GetFiles and DirectoryInfo.GetDirectories, and
either keep a list of all the directories you still need to search, or
recurse.
 
this code should get you started

public static void ProcessDirectory(string targetDirectory)

// Process the list of files found in the directory
string [] fileEntries = Directory.GetFiles(targetDirectory)
foreach(string fileName in fileEntries
ProcessFile(fileName)

// Recurse into subdirectories of this directory
string [] subdirectoryEntries = Directory.GetDirectories(targetDirectory)
foreach(string subdirectory in subdirectoryEntries
ProcessDirectory(subdirectory)
