Ya just found this out thanks for the good info. guys
My big problem was I had to down wrong, it was

fileNames = Directory.GetFiles(dirLocation, product.SelectedItem + ".rlt");

and it should of been

fileNames = Directory.GetFiles(dirLocation, product.SelectedItem + "*.rlt");

again thanks so much for your input, I read the link and learned something as well.

Cheers!

Ok the pick folder shouldn't be there should it? I should put my function right in the button code
that is supplied when I drag the button on my workspace.? I know if I was doing this in PHP I would
just make my function and call them but it seems C# is different in the way it does this.

sorry for being to new, I'll do a lot more reading before bothering you fine gals/gents again.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and sorry if I'm to far out of line ..
