Get the Files from specified Path

 Now we can easily get the file name in specific location of hard drive. here i have used Linq to get the file name from FileInfo[] collection.

use using System.IO; namespace for file related operations.

//This method return list of file names of given path

        public string getFilename(string path)

        {

            try

            {

                DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(path);

                FileInfo[] files = di.GetFiles();

                //filter name of the files

                List lstfilenames = (from a in files

                                     select a.Name).ToList();

                return lstfilenames;

            }

            catch (Exception)

            {

                return lstfilenames;

            }

        }
