display list of new or updated files without database? - 4/10/2008 9:10:15   
Hello all,

I just have simple question. I know that this is possible to do when there is SQL and a database involved, but I was wondering if there was a way to use ASP to display a dynamically updating list of the most recent files that were new/updated in a certain directory on a web page WITHOUT a database being involved? Thanks!

You should be able to do what you want using FSO, http://www.w3schools.com/asp/asp_ref_filesystem.asp) . You may need to first read them into an array and then sort/remove them how you want and then display.

<edit>
Take a look here for an example: http://classicasp.aspfaq.com/files/directories-fso/how-do-i-sort-a-list-of-files.html
