      @Sawer All files, but the samples won't be in the project folder on the user's system.

      Do your samples have a .format extension?

      Perhaps use this function

        @d-healey the format was just an example name: the wildcard is "*.wav"
        Will try that function now and give you a feedback. Thanks

          @d-healey For instance, I'm now trying the same thing with an XML, and still the array is not populated. Strange..

            @Sawer Need to see more of your code to know what you're doing wrong.

              @d-healey True.

              inline function fetchSamplesDirectory(component, value)
              {
                 if (value == 1)
                   FileSystem.browseForDirectory(FileSystem.Desktop, function(folder)
              	{
              	   if(isDefined(folder) && folder.isDirectory())
              			{
              			  var samplesPath = folder.toString(folder.FullPath); //samples directory variable
              				
              			  var samplesArray = FileSystem.findFiles(samplesPath, "*.wav", false); //Array of samples 
              				
                                        Console.print(samplesArray);
              			}	
              	});
              };
              

              I have not been iterating over the array cause it's still not populated.

                @Sawer You don't need to pass a string to the findFiles function. Just pass in the folder variable.
