hi,

Just before I start I am new to VB.net, not much experience :)

Ok so what I want to do is sort some files in a folder based on the order the files are listed in a text file.

Is this possible?

So an example, I have a text file called FileList.text and inside it is a list of files, what I want to do is read a folder and order those files based on what the text file says.

Thanks in advance for help

What do you mean order them? Windows Explorer orders the files in the directory based on the column you select.

Unless you're talking about ordering the contents of those files based on the value in an external textfile?
