Hi All

I have put a variable to the filename of the image <img1>
then in script
by using
img1 = SYSTEM_PUBLICATION_DIR + "\\images\h\mypic.jpg"

I want to check wether the file is there in the directory or not?

Use FileExists function.

Is there a way to count the number of files in the directory?
Can I transfer the filenames in an array?
Most likely the answer to my question would be "no", but...

Actually the answer is yes.

For Opus 6+ user, Interaktiv have a DLL that will do this.

For those pre-Opus 6, you need to use the command line to list the directory to file and read this into Opus.

EG:

dir > c:\listing.txt

There is a good post on this somewhere on the forum.
